[Intro]
G+G  A minorAm Am7Am7 A minorAm  C majorC  G+G
G MajorG  A minorAm Am7Am7 A minorAm  C majorC  G+G

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

[Verse 2]
     G+G
And this kink in my walk
     G+G
Makes me focus when I talk
   A minorAm
If I can`t trust my feet
       D/AD/A        D7D7
Then it`s my tongue I choose to keep

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

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

[Verse 5]
      A minorAm
And oh I`m good, I think I`m good
      Fmaj7Fmaj7
Will I be great, will I be great?
    C majorC              G+G
Is it money I wanna make or is it sweet love for his sake?

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

[Chorus]
      A minorAm
When will I ever see the land?
    Fmaj7Fmaj7
Will I ever see the land?
  C majorC
Oh water can`t revive me
    G+G
I need dirt in my hand
    A minorAm
Will I ever see the land?
    Fmaj7Fmaj7
Will I ever see the land?
     C majorC
Oh the ground will give me something
  D MajorD      Dsus4Dsus4 G+G
I know that it can

[Interlude]
G+G  A minorAm Am7Am7 A minorAm  C majorC  G+G

[Verse 7]
       G+G
See I have charm and I have sight
     G+G
And I always try and do what`s right
      A minorAm
But I have faults you know it`s true
       D MajorD        D7D7
Especially when it comes to treating you well

[Verse 8]
G+G             G+G
I will work when all my thoughts are mine again
      A minorAm               D MajorD
See I was sure at the start, turns out I tried too hard
      A minorAm
And oh I`m good, I think I`m good
      Fmaj7Fmaj7
Will I be great, will I be great?
    C majorC              G+G
Is it money I wanna make or is it sweet love
   D MajorD   D7D7
for his sake?

[Chorus]
      A minorAm
When will I ever see the land?
    Fmaj7Fmaj7
Will I ever see the land?
  C majorC
Oh water can`t revive me
    G+G
I need dirt in my hand
    A minorAm
Will I ever see the land?
    Fmaj7Fmaj7
Will I ever see the land?
     C majorC
Oh the ground will give me something
  D MajorD      Dsus4Dsus4 G+G
I know that it can

[Outro]
G+G  A minorAm Am7Am7 A minorAm  C majorC  G+G
G MajorG  A minorAm Am7Am7 A minorAm  C majorC  G+G Gsus4Gsus4 G+G
