[Intro 1]
[D][Bm][D]
[Bm][D][G][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]It's a mighty hard
[Bm]road that my [D]poor hands have [Bm]told
[D]My poor feet have travelled a hot,
dusty road
Out of your dustbowl and
westward we [Bm]rode
And your [D]desert was hot an[Bm]d
your mountain was [D]cold
I've worked in your orchards
of beaches and [Bm]brooms
[D]Slept on the [Bm]ground [D]in the light of the moon
On the edge of your city,
you'd seen us [Bm]someday
We [D]come with the dust and we
go with the [Bm]wind[D]
California and
Arizon[Bm]a, I[D]'ll make all your crops
[Bm]And it's north[D] up to[Bm]
Oregon to [D]gather your hobs
[Bm]Take[D] the beets from your ground, cut the grapes from your vines,[Bm]
[D]to set on your [Bm]tables your [D]light sparkling [Bm]wine.[D]
Green pastures of [Bm]plenty from dry desert [D]ground,
from that
Grand
Coulee
Dam where the water runs down.
Every state in this union has
migrants [Bm]who'll [D]be
We work in your fight an[Bm]d we'll
fight till we [D]win[Bm][D]
Well it's always we ramble,
that river and [Bm]I
[D]All along your green valley,
I'll work till I die
My land I'll defend with my life if need be
Cos my pastures of fancy
must [Bm]always be free

[Outro 1]
[Bm][D]
