Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Verse 1]
[D]When they opened up the
strip I was young and [G]full [D]of zip,
I wanted some place to call my [A]own.
And [D]so I made the race,
and staked [G]me out a [D]place,
And settled down [A]along the Cimarron.
[D]

[Verse 2]
It blowed [G]away, it blowed [D]away,
My Oklahoma home, it blowed [A]away.
It looked [D]so green and fair when I
built [G]my shanty [D]there,
But my Oklahoma home, it blowed away.

[Verse 3]
I [D]planted wheat and oats,
got some chick[G]ens and some [D]shoats,
Aimed to have some ham and
eggs to feed [A]my face.
Got a [D]mule to pull the plow,
got [G]an old red muley [D]cow
And got a fancy mortgage [A]on [D]the place.

[Verse 4]
It [D]blowed [G]away, it blowed [D]away,
All the crops I planted blowed [A]away.
You can[D]'t grow any grain if you
[G]ain't [D]got any rain;
All except the mortgage
[A]blowed [D]away.

[Verse 5]
It looked so green and [D]fair,
when I built my [G]shanty [D]there,
I figured I was all set [A]for life.
I put [D]on my Sunday best with my
[G]fancy scalloped [D]vest
And went to town and
[A]picked me out [D]a wife.

[Verse 6]
[D]She blowed [G]away, she blowed [D]away
My Oklahoma woman blowed [A]away.
[D]Mister as I bent and kissed her, she was
picked [G]up by [D]a twister;
My Oklahoma [A]woman blowed [D]away.

[Verse 7]
Then I was [D]left alone a-listenin'
[G]to to [D]the moan
Of the wind around the corners
of [A]my shack[D];
So I took off down the road when [G]the south wind [D]blowed,
A-travelin' with with the wind at my back.
I blowed [G]away,

[Verse 8]
I blowed [D]away
Chasin' a dust cloud up [A]ahead.
Once it [D]looked so green and fair,
now it's [G]up there in [D]the air;
My Oklahoma [A]farm is [D]overhead.

[Verse 9]
Now I'm [D]always close to home
no [G]matter where [D]I roam,
For Oklahoma dust is everywhere.
[A]Makes no [D]difference where I'm walkin',
I can hear [G]my chickens [D]squawkin'
I can hear my wife a-talkin' in
[A]in the air[D].

[Verse 10]
It blowed [G]away, it blowed [D]away,
My Oklahoma home blowed [A]away.
But my [D]home is always near; it's
in the [G]atmo[D]sphere,
My Oklahoma [A]home that blowed [D]away.

[Verse 11]
[D]I'm a roamin' Oklahoman, but I'm
[G]al ways close [D]to home
And I'll never get homesick 'til I [A]die.
[D]No matter where I'm found,
my home [G]is [D]all around;
My Oklahoma home is [A]in [D]the sky.

[Verse 12]
[D]It blowed [G]away, it blowed [A]away,[D]
My farm down upon [A]the Cimarron.
[D]But all around the world,
wherever [G]dust [D]is whirled,
Some is from my Oklahoma home.
It blowed [G]away,

[Verse 13]
it blowed [D]away,
My Oklahoma home blowed [A]away.
[A]Oh it's [D]up there in the sky in that dust [G]cloud rolling [D]by,
my Oklahoma home is blowed away.
