Woody Guthrie - This Land Is Your Land

G C G
this land is your land , this land is my land
D G
from california to the new york island
G7 C G
from the redwood forest to the gulf stream waters
D7 G
this land was made for you and me .

verse 1 :
G C G
as i went walking that ribbon of highway
D G
i saw above me that endless skyway
G7 C G
i saw below me that golden valley
D7 G
this land was made for you and me .

repeat chorus

verse 2 :

G C G
i roamed and i rambled and i followed my footsteps
D G
to the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
G7 C G
while all around me a voice was sounding
D7 G
this land was made for you and me .

repeat chorus

verse 3 :

G C G
when the sun came shining , and i was strolling
D G
and the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling
G7 C G
a voice was chanting , as the fog was lifting ,
D7 G
this land was made for you and me .

repeat chorus

verse 4 :

G C G
as i went walking i saw a sign there
D G
and on the sign it said “no trespassing . ”
G7 C G
but on the other side it didn’t say nothing ,
D7 G
that side was made for you and me .

repeat chorus

verse 5 :

G C G
in the squares of the city , in the shadow of a steeple;
D G
by the relief office , i’d seen my people .
G7 C G
as they stood there hungry , i stood there asking ,
D7 G
is this land made for you and me?

repeat chorus

verse 6 :

G C G
nobody living can ever stop me ,
D G
as i go walking that freedom highway;
G7 C G
nobody living can make me turn back
D7 G
this land was made for you and me .
