-INTRO-
E2  Am9/E  E2  Am9/E


-VERSE 1-
E2           Am9/E                E2           Am9/E
SO MANY MILES BEHIND, STILL I DRIVE, PEDAL DOWN
E2               Am9/E                       E2  Am9/E
OFF THE MAP HOURS BACK, IT'S BENEATH THE SEAT, I THINK
E2          Am9/E                              E2             Am9/E
WITH TWO PENNIES AND A MATCH AND SOMETHING ELSE, I CAN'T REMEMBER
E2             Am9/E                          E2             Am9/E
BUT IN THE TIME THAT IT WOULD TAKE TO FISH IT OUT, I'LL BE ANOTHER MILE GONE
C2     G          D C2
AND I FEEL SO WRONG,
G             D     C2
TRYING TO FEEL RIGHT
   G                      D            C2
IN LIGHT OF ALL THE THINGS I'VE PASSED,
        G                      D
YOU'D THINK THAT I HAVE LEARNED


-CHORUS 1-
        E       G        D        A
THIS IS NOT THE LAND WAS PROMISED ME
E       G        D        A
EVEN AS FAR AS MY EYES CAN SEE
    E       G           D        A
I'M SO WOUND UP LORD I CAN'T EVEN BREATH
  E            G    D        A            E G D A
I DON'T WANT WORDS, I JUST WANT SOME PEACE
          E G D A
SOME PEACE,
          E G D A E G D A
SOME PEACE


E2 Am9/E E2 Am9/E


-VERSE 2-
E2                     Am9/E
IT SEEMS I'VE MISPLACED MY FAITH,
                  E2                   Am9/E
IT'S ELEVEN-TWELVE AND NOTHING'S CHANGED
E2                          Am9/E
WELL NOTHING EXCEPT THE CHANNEL I'M AFRAID,
                   E2                 Am9/E
AND THE NUMBER THERE, NO IT'S THE SAME
E2                     Am9/E
OH THIS MUST BE THE SAVIOR OF THE MONTH,
                    E2                 Am9/E
AND WHAT I MUST HAVE, WHERE'S THE NIGHT GONE?
E2                         Am9/E
'CAUSE I'M SO TIRED AND OUT OF SHAPE,
                      E2      Am9/E
YOU'VE GOTTA GET ME UP, BUT I CAN'T GET UP TODAY
C2               G      D C2
'CAUSE IT'S BEEN SO LONG,
G               D    C2
SINCE I'VE FELT RIGHT
G                   D          C2
ALL THE ROTE, REHEARSAL, PROOF
        G                        D
YOU'D THINK THAT I'D HAVE LEARNED


-CHORUS 1-
        E       G        D        A
THIS IS NOT THE LAND WAS PROMISED ME
E       G        D        A
EVEN AS FAR AS MY EYES CAN SEE
    E       G           D        A
I'M SO WOUND UP LORD I CAN'T EVEN BREATH
  E            G    D        A            E G D A
I DON'T WANT WORDS, I JUST WANT SOME PEACE
          E G D A
SOME PEACE,
          E G D A E G D A
SOME PEACE

-CHORUS 2-
        E       G        D        A
THIS IS NOT THE LAND WAS PROMISED ME
      E          G        D            A
GOTTA GET OUT OF BED, GET SOMETHING TO READ
        E       G        D      A
I GOTTA FEED MY BROTHER, NOT MY EYES
E       G         D      A
IF NOT, THEN I'LL BE ALL I DESPISE

I'M SO WOUND UP LORD I CAN'T EVEN BREATH
  E            G    D        A            E G D A
I DON'T WANT WORDS, I JUST WANT SOME PEACE
          E G D A
SOME PEACE,
          E G D A E G D A
SOME PEACE.
