This Land Is Your Land

	  		

             G                       D 
This land is your land, this land is my land  
         A                      D 
From California to the New York Island 
                 G                         D  
From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream waters 
A                              D  
This land was made for you and me. 


verse 1:  

          G                      D 
As I went walking that ribbon of highway 
       A                    D 
I saw above me that endless skyway 
        G                  D   
I saw below me that golden valley 
A                              D  
This land was made for you and me. 

Repeat Chorus 
  
verse 2: 

               G                         D 
I roamed and I rambled and I followed my footsteps 
                 A                    D  
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts 
           G                    D  
While all around me a voice was sounding 
A                              D  
This land was made for you and me. 

Repeat Chorus 

verse 3: 

                  G                  D 
When the sun came shining, and I was strolling 
                     A                          D  
And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling 
            G                        D  
A voice was chanting, As the fog was lifting, 
A                              D  
This land was made for you and me. 

Repeat Chorus 

verse 4: 

          G                    D 
As I went walking I saw a sign there 
                   A            D  
And on the sign it said "No Trespassing." 
           G                        D  
But on the other side it didn't say nothing, 
A                              D  
That side was made for you and me. 

Repeat Chorus 

Verse 5: 

                      G                        D 
In the squares of the city, In the shadow of a steeple; 
              A                   D  
By the relief office, I'd seen my people. 
                    G                     D  
As they stood there hungry, I stood there asking, 
A                             D  
Is this land made for you and me? 

Repeat Chorus 

Verse 6: 

       G                    D 
Nobody living can ever stop me, 
        A                    D  
As I go walking that freedom highway; 
       G          D 
Nobody living can make me turn back 
A                              D  
This land was made for you and me. 

Repeat Chorus 2x 

And that should be that for This Land Is My Land by Woody Guthrie. A song 
that is still true today as it was over 50 years ago. So when you've made 
your final judgemnet on the song, please rate and/or leave a comment.
