Verse 1
D 
G 
This land is your land,
D 
this land is my land
A 
D 
California to the New York islands
G 
From the redwood forest
D 
to the Gulf Stream water
A 
D 
This land belongs to you and me
G 
D 
As I went walking, a dream on a highway,
A 
D 
saw above me that endless skyway,
G 
and all around me a
D 
voice keeps saying,
A 
D 
this land was made for you and  me.
A 
G 
D 
This land is your land, this land is my land,
A 
D 
from California to the New York island,
G 
from the redwood forest
D 
to the country water.
A 
I hate a song that makes you think
you're not any good.
D 
I hate a song that makes you think
G 
you're just born to lose, bound to lose.
No good to nobody
D 
No good for nothing
Because you're either too old or too young
A 
Or too fat or too thin
D 
Or too ugly or too this or too that
Songs that run you down
G 
Or songs that poke fun at you
On account of your bad luck
D 
Or your hard travelin'
A 
I am out to fight those kind of songs
To my very last breath of air
D 
And my last drop of blood
I am out to sing songs
G 
That'll prove to you
that this is your world
D 
And it has hit you pretty hard
A 
and knocked you down for a dozen loops,
D 
no matter how hard it's run you down
and rolled over you,
G 
no matter what color, what size you are,
D 
how you're built,
I am out to sing the songs
A 
D 
that will make you take pride in yourself.
G 
D 
As I went walking, I saw a sign there
A 
and on the sign it said,
D 
No trespassing,
G 
but on the other side,
D 
it didn't say nothing.
A 
D 
That side was made for you and me.
G 
This land is your land.
D 
This land is my land.
A 
D 
From California to the New York island,
G 
from the Redwood forest
D 
to the Gulf Stream water.
A 
This land was made for you and me.
