Em G D Em

[Verse 1]
G
It's a mighty hard row
        D     Em
My poor hands have hoed
G
My poor feet have traveled
      D     Em
A hot dusty road

[Verse 2]
G
Out of your Dust Bowl
             D  Em
And westward we rolled
G
Your deserts were hot
         D          Em
Your mountains were cold

[Verse 3]
G
I worked in your orchards
   D           Em
Of peaches and prunes
G
Slept on the ground
             D       Em
By the light of your moon

[Verse 4]
G
On the edge of your city
              D   Em
You'll see us and then
G
We come with the dust
           D        Em
We're gone with the wind

[Verse 5]
G
California and Arizona,
       D        Em
I made all your crops
G
And its north up to Oregon
           D    Em
To harvest your hops

[Verse 6]
G
Dig the beets from your ground,
                D         Em
Pick the grapes from your vine
G
To set on your table
           D         Em
Your light sparkling wine

[Verse 7]
G
It's green pastures of plenty
         D      Em
From dry desert ground
G
From the Grand Coulee Dam
                 D   Em
Where the waters run down

[Verse 8]
G
Every state in this Union
            D    Em
Us migrants have been
G
We'll work in this fight
                D       Em
And we'll fight till we win

[Verse 9]
G
And it's always we ramble
       D       Em
This river and I
G
All along your green valley,
            D      Em
I will work till I die

[Verse 10]
G
And this land I'll defend
             D       Em
With my life if need be
G
'Cause my pastures of plenty
        D      Em
Must always be free
