[Intro 1]
[Em][A][D][Em][A][D]

[Verse 1]
He [D]walked all
over his [A]own growin' land

[Verse 2]
From the New York [A]island
to [D]the California sand

[Verse 3]
He [G]saw all the people that
[D]needed [A]to be [D]seen

[Verse 4]
[A]Planted all the grass where
it [G]needed to [D]be green
And [Em]now he's

[Verse 5]
[A]bound for
a [D]glory all his own
[Em]And now he is

[Verse 6]
[A]bound for [D]glory

[Verse 7]
[D]
He wrote and he sang an
[A]d he rode upon the rails
And he got on board when
the sailors [D]had to sail
[G]He said all the words that [D]needed to be said
[A]He fed all the hungry souls that nee[G]ded to
[D]be fed

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 8]
(chorus) [D]He sang
[A]in our [D]streets and
[A]he sang in our halls
And he was always there when
[D]the unions gave a call
He [G]did all the jobs that [D]needed to be done
He [A]always stood his ground when [G]a smaller man would [D]run[Em]

(chorus)

[Verse 9]
And its [D]Pastures of Plenty wrote
[A]the dustbowl balladeer
And This Land is Your Land,
he [D]wanted us to hear
And [G]the risin' of the unions
will be [D]sung about again
And [A]the Deportees live on through [G]the power
of his [D]pen[Em][A][D][Em]
[A][D]
(chorus)
Now they sing out [A]his praises

[Verse 10]
[D]
[A]on every distant shore
But so few remember what
[D]he was fightin' for
[G]Oh why sing the songs and
forget [D]about the aim?
He [A]wrote them for a reason,
why not [G]sing them for the same
[D](chorus)
