Been To Canaan

• Fm7

This is Carole's cracker off the Rhymes and Reasons Album(1972) 

It is in the correct key , but transposing makes it easier. It is about her home in Connecticut.

Though I'm content with myself

I try to do what I can, but with our day to day demands 
We all need a promised land.

Been so long,I can't remember when

I go back again.

And you to hold me when it's stormy 
Chorus 3 

Been so long, I can't remember when

'cause I've been to Canaan and I won't rest until 
I go back again.
