[Intro]
G   Am Am7 Am   C   G
G   Am Am7 Am   C   G

[Verse 1]
           G
These new lines on my face
            G
Spell out `girl pick up your pace
        Am                             D
If you want to stay true to what your younger self would do`

[Verse 2]
          G
And this kink in my walk
          G
Makes me focus when I talk
      Am
If I can`t trust my feet
              D/A                D7
Then it`s my tongue I choose to keep

[Verse 3]
             G
And I walk slow so I can read
        G
Let my head fall, my hips lead
            Am
Why`d you write the words so small?
         D
Did you fool me, are they words at all?

[Verse 4]
        G
Or are you pulling down the veil
          G
Keeping grounded as you set my sail?
        Am
By the time I pull it off
       D
All my innocence is lost

[Verse 5]
            Am
And oh I`m good, I think I`m good
            Fmaj7
Will I be great, will I be great?
       C                            G
Is it money I wanna make or is it sweet love for his sake?

[Verse 6]
               G
And these new parts I now need
            G
To help me function, help me feed
            Am
They are beyond my modest earnings
        D
Oh the girls they keep turning up the heat
   G
As if it`s cold
         C
But I`m hot, too hot to hold
Am                                  D
I`ll burn a hole right through the hull

[Chorus]
            Am
When will I ever see the land?
       Fmaj7
Will I ever see the land?
    C
Oh water can`t revive me
        G
I need dirt in my hand
       Am
Will I ever see the land?
       Fmaj7
Will I ever see the land?
         C
Oh the ground will give me something
    D            Dsus4 G
I know that it can

[Interlude]
G   Am Am7 Am   C   G

[Verse 7]
             G
See I have charm and I have sight
         G
And I always try and do what`s right
            Am
But I have faults you know it`s true
             D                D7
Especially when it comes to treating you well

[Verse 8]
G                         G
I will work when all my thoughts are mine again
           Am                              D
See I was sure at the start, turns out I tried too hard
            Am
And oh I`m good, I think I`m good
            Fmaj7
Will I be great, will I be great?
       C                            G
Is it money I wanna make or is it sweet love
     D      D7
for his sake?

[Chorus]
            Am
When will I ever see the land?
       Fmaj7
Will I ever see the land?
    C
Oh water can`t revive me
        G
I need dirt in my hand
       Am
Will I ever see the land?
       Fmaj7
Will I ever see the land?
         C
Oh the ground will give me something
    D            Dsus4 G
I know that it can

[Outro]
G   Am Am7 Am   C   G
G   Am Am7 Am   C   G Gsus4 G
