Love Land Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]She wasn't
wearing a wedding dress
In a [C]Vegas wedding [G]chapel
They were [Em]herding 'em in and out of there
[C]Like they wer[G]e cattle
Not exactly the fairytale
that [C]she had planned
[G]But mama said,
[Em]"Aren't you supposed to get married, girl
Before you [G]bring a baby in this world?"
And all [C]she could say was "yes [G]ma'am"
She called her from that [D]chapel
In Love [G]Land
[C]She said, "mama,
I really love [G]this [D]man"
Love [G]Land

[Verse 2]
[G]
Seemed like a lifetime,
driving from Ve[C]gas to Oklaho[G]ma
"If you're al[Em]lowed a number
of mistakes in life," she said
[C]"Maybe I filled my quarter[G]"
They called in a reception,
saying [C]you did the right [G]thing
But [Em]they smiled,
their broken smiles said
[G]"Who needs to walk down the aisle?"
As she [C]showed off her
wedding [G]ring
They walked away hand in [D]hand
To Love [G]Land[C]
She said, "I really love this [G]man"[D]
Love [G]Land

[Verse 3]
[A]Amazing all the progress we've made
Since the [D]days of Thomas [A]Edison
Still [F#m]only God gives life
In [D]spite of modern medi[A]cine
The doctors' voices whispered
"We did [D]all that we could [A]do
But [F#m]your baby wasn't strong enough
[A]To make it the whole nine months"
And [D]as their world broke [A]in two
He said, "I'll carry you [E]through
[D]To Love [A]Land"

[Verse 4]
[D]She said, "for the longest
time I've [E]blamed myself
[C#m]Thought I was paying for my mistakes"[F#m]
But [E]they tried again,
now [B]they're watching him
Blow [D]three candles [E]out
He's daddy's [A]little [D]man
She said, "only God [E]could've
planned the steps I've [D]taken
[F#m]That led me to where I am[A][E]
[A]Love Land
[D]Love, Love [A]Land
[E]Anywhere you hold my
[A]hand is Love [D]Land
Ooh, [A]Love [E]Land"
