Verse 1
Em 
It's a mighty hard road
Am 
Em 
my poor hands have hoed
My poor feet have traveled this hot,
Am 
Em 
Am 
dusty road
Em 
Out of your dust bowl and
westward we roll
Am 
Through deserts so hot and
Bbm 
Am 
through mountains
Em 
Am 
Em 
so cold
I've wandered all over your green,
growing land
Wherever your crops are,
I'll lend you my hand
Am 
On the edge of your city,
Em 
you see me and then
Am 
Em 
Bbm 
Am 
I come with the dust and I'm gone
Bbm 
Am 
Em 
Am 
Em 
with the wind
California,
Arizona, I've worked on your crops
Then northward up to
Am 
Em 
Oregon to  gather your hops
I've beets from your ground, I've cut grapes from the vine I sit on your table,
Am 
Em 
that life's sparkling wine
Green pastures of plenty from
dry desert ground
Am 
Em 
From the
Grand
Coulee
Am 
Em 
Dam where waters run
down
Am 
Em 
Every state of this
union migrants have been
Am 
Bbm 
Am 
We come with the dust an    d we're
Bbm 
Am 
Em 
Am 
Em 
Bbm 
gone with the wind
Em 
Am 
Em 
It's always we ramble
Bbm 
Em 
Am 
that river and I
Em 
Am 
Em 
All along your green valley I
Am 
Em 
Am 
work till I   die
Em 
Am 
Travel this road until
Em 
death sets me free
Am 
Bbm 
Cause pastures of plenty must
Am 
Em 
Am 
Em 
always be free
Am 
Well I've wandered all over your
Em 
Am 
green growing land
Em 
Am 
Wherever your crops are,
Em 
I'll lend you my hand
Am 
Em 
On the edge of your cities
you'll see me and then
Am 
Bbm 
Am 
I've come with the dust and I'm gone
Bbm 
with the wind
