Intro 1
(A minor)
Verse 1
Load up the old (A minor) dodge truck
We'll (F major) leave what we can't sell (A minor)
Nobody needs a sharecropper's tools
(F major) Or a dust filled well (A minor)
Take you one last look around
Shed (F major) you one last tear
For the broken (A minor) plow, the broken dreams
And the life (F major) we're leaving (A minor) here

Interlude 1
Verse 2
Pull the lines down tight (A minor)
The kids (F major) can ride on top of the load
(A minor) In the cool of the night
They can crawl underneath the tarp
(F major) To stay out of the cold
(A minor) Eleven hundred miles of mountain
and sand
We'll cross (F major) 'em tired and torn
If this beat (A minor) up truck can carry us
Far enough (F major) away from the storm
(A minor)
Verse 3
We're go (F major) ing to Califor (C major) nia
There's work (G major) there for a man
Too proud (F major) to beg for char (C major) ity
Too poor (G major) to make (F major) a stand
Pray it's just the land we're los (G major) ing
Not my life's (Gsus4) (C major) blood that I leave (F major)
On the (A minor) handles of that broken plow
Verse 4
That (F major) haunts me in (A minor) my dreams
Verse 5
(A minor)
A man at a roadside station
Don't like (F major) dealing with my kind
(A minor) He'd beat me out of my last dollar
And never look (F major) me in the eye
(A minor) I heard 'em call us okies
Hell I don't (F major) know what that means
But something (A minor) tells me
the promised land
Ain't as promising (F major) as (A minor) it seems
Verse 6
(A minor)
We're go (F major) ing to Califor (C major) nia
There's work (G major) there for a man
Too (F major) proud to beg for char (C major) ity
Too poor (G major) to make a stand (F major)
Pray it's just the land we're los (G major) ing
Not my life's (C major) blood that I leave (F major)
On the (A minor) handles of that
broken plow
Verse 7
On the handles of my broken plow that (F major) haunts
me in my dream (A minor) s

Verse 8
This restless road (F major) is full
of strangers (A minor) (F major)
They ain't no stranger than
I (A minor) am (F major)
Hardened faces damn the dust
(A minor) and curse the wind
That drove us from this life and home
We'll never (F major) know again
(A minor)
Verse 9
We're go (F major) ing to Califor (C major) nia
There's work (G major) there for a man
Too (F major) proud to beg for char (C major) ity
Too poor (G major) to make a stand (F major)
Pray it's just the land we're los (G major) ing
Not my life's (C major) blood that I leave (F major)
On the (A minor) handles of that broken plow
(F major) (A minor)
Verse 10
On the handles of my broken plow
that haunts (F major) me in my dream (A minor) s
