A                     Bm          

Oh, my land is like a wild goose

D                  A       D E D

Wanders all around everywhere

A                                 Bm

Trembles and it shakes till every tree is loose

D                           A D E D

It rolls the meadows and it rolls the nails

A Bm

So take me down to your dance floor

    D    A D E D

And I won´t mind the people when they stare

A                               Bm            D

Paint a different color on your front door

D A D E D

And tomorrow we will still be there

A Bm

Jesus built a ship to sing a song to

D A D E D

It sails the rivers and it sails the tide

A Bm

Some of my friends don´t know who they belong to

D A D E D

Some can´t get a single thing to work inside

A Bm

So take me down to your dance floor

D A D E D

And I won´t mind the people when they stare

A Bm

Paint a different color on your front door

D A D E D A

And tomorrow we will still be there

SOLO

A Bm

I loved you every day and now I´m leaving

D A D E D

And I can see the sorrow in your eyes

A Bm

I hope you know a lot more than you´re believing

D A D E D

Just so the sun don´t hurt you when you cry

A Bm

Oh, take me down to your dance floor

D A D E D

I won´t mind the people when they stare

A Bm

Paint a different color on your front door

D A D E D

And tomorrow we may still be there

Bm D A

And tomorrow we may still be there
