   D            G    D
My girlfriend?s in Albania
   D         G     D
My ex-wife?s in Tasmania
   D    G         D
And I?m in Transylvania
D                          C
With the vampires all around.
   G         C     G
My brother?s in Saskatchewan
   G        C    G
My sister?s in Afghanistan
G             C       G
Still looking for the Promised Land
G			 A
But the kingdom lies within.


   D        G         D
My mother?s still in vanity
D           G     D
I?m part of her insanity
   D      G         D
My father died some years ago
D			  C
But I still pray for his soul
    G     C      G
Now everyone?s a refugee
G       C      G
On this planet purgatory
G       C     G
We only find reality
G		          A
In the land of the chosen few

Em		  A
I still get lost in wild imagination
Em		       A
I need to wake up to reality
Em		   A
I?ve had enough of identifaction
Em		       A
What can be done for a fool like me

       Em	    A
In the land, in the land,
       Em		  A
In the land of the chosen few
       Em	    A
In the land, in the land,
	Em		  A
In the land of the chosen few

A	             D
Love is gonna set me free

D		      Bm
I was dreaming of the Promised Land
             G
Where people understand
     Em7	   D
Real love and harmony
D               Bm	       G
And I knew that I had found my way
D			 Bm
We were singing songs of innocence
    G             Em7	       D
And experience of love and harmony
D               Bm            G
And I knew that I was here to stay

D                  E
In the middle of a cool, cool night
G               A
I woke up and I saw the light
Em                   A
In the land,  in the land....


??and repeat Em to A through to end.
