Lucy Kaplansky - Line In The Sand


CAPO: 2nd Fret


INTRO: D C G D C Bm Em  G

                D
This news won't break my heart
               Em
It's already been blown apart
              Bm
I feel like a helpless girl
        D
In this tender troubled world

 G
Another bomb lights up the night
  D
For someone's vision of paradise
     Em
But it's just a wasted sacrifice
   Bm          D
That fuels the hate on the other side


PRE-CHORUS:
C     G       D
All in the name of a holy land
C   G  D          G
All to claim a line in the sand


CHORUS:

Oh, but the promised land
  C          D        G
Is just across another line in the sand

Yeah, the promised land
  C          D      Em  D G
Is just across another line in the sand



Just like at Calvary
D
Soldiers do the bidding of their king
  Em
And dreams are lost, one at a time
Bm        D
Blown across both sides of the line


  G
You can't kill a giant with just one stone
  D
You can't erase the story of a family's home
 Em
A hate-filled heart still beats alone
Bm           D
Walking wounded on that endless road


PRE-CHORUS:
      C    G        D   C
And there's so much blood on all our hands
      G     D         G
It cuts an even deeper line in the sand


CHORUS:

Oh, but the promised land
  C          D        G
Is just across another line in the sand

Yeah, the promised land
  C          D      Em  D
Is just across another line in the sand


PRE-CHORUS:
          C     G
I hope a forgiving rain will fall sometime
  D   C    D
And wash away that line


LEAD BREAK: C G D  C G D  G


CHORUS:

Oh, but the promised land
  C          D         G
Is just across another line in the sand

Yeah, the promised land
  C          D         G
Is just across another line in the sand


CHORUS:

Oh, but the promised land
  C          D         G
Is just across another line in the sand

Yeah, the promised land
  C          D      C  G
Is just across another line in the sand
