G
All life we work but work is bore,

If life's for livin' what's livin' for,

She lives in a house that's near decay,
G C D
Built for the industrial revolution,
G D G
But in her dreams she is far away,

In Oklahoma U.S.A.

As she buys her paper at the corner shop,
G C D
She's walkin' on the surrey with the fringe on top,
G D G
'Cause in her dreams she is far, far away,
G
In Oklahoma U.S.A.,
C G D
She walks to work but she's still in a daze,
C G D
She's Rita Hayworth or Doris Day,
Em D C
And Errol Flynn's gonna take her away,
D G
To Oklahoma U.S.A.,
G
All life we work but work is a bore,

If life's for livin' then what's livin' for.
