                                          G                                                                                 Bm  
It was a maiden voyage, she rode shotgun in the back
        C                                                            D  
We made snow angels in the motel tire tracks
                                G                                                                      Bm  
The traffic thinned, it parted just for us
                                             C                                 D                 G  
Through rain and wind, through ash and rust
                             Em                                                                      C  
We saw the white dome, like a gleaming breast
                                                                  G                                                                                              D  
But our eyes were on the White House and to hell with all the rest
                             Em                                                                            C  
The masses gathered, drinking frozen margaritas
                                             G                            D                                      G  
              Gsºuth  
                                Em                                                 C  
It goes like this, you take your hand
                                G                                                                 D  
You lift it up and you put it on your heart
                                     Em  
And there you stand
                             C                            G                                                            D  
Singing, ?This land is your land, this land is my land?
                        G                                                 Bm  
A little body so packed with clothes
             C                                                                              D  
Disappearing into hordes and lining up in useless rows
        G                                                         Bm  
Of three million people, ashamed and accused
                          C                                                                                            D                            G  
Scared to say where they're from, angry their name's been used
                          Em                                         C  
I held my girl as she fell asleep
                                          G                                                         D  
At the noontime hour, at the inaugural weep
                                     Em                                                                 C  
A man said to me, ?You are living in the present moment?
                             G                                                                 D         G  
And I felt shut out, cold, tired and all alone
                                Em                                                 C  
It goes like this, you take your hand
                                G                                                                 D  
You lift it up and you put it on your heart
                                     Em  
And there you stand
                             C                            G                                                            D  
Singing, ?This land is your land, this land is my land?
             G    Bm    C    D  
                                        G                                                         Bm  
The privileged held, while the masses flowed
             C                                                                      D  
Just like a mighty river running through my soul
                     G                                                                      Bm  
My girl cried for a flag, something she could understand
                  C                                                                                 D                    G  
And we marched through the street as I held her hand
                                     Em                                                              C  
The good days come, not just the golden dies
                                  G                                                    D  
As the giant sleeps under cumulus skies
                                Em                                                 C  
We sing and dance and scream our names
                                                             G                      D                            G  
Sleep the sleep of the weary and drive home again
                                                  Em                                                 C  
Honey, it goes like this, you take your hand
                                G                                                                 D  
You lift it up and you put it on your heart
                                     Em  
And there you stand
                             C                            G                                                            D  
Singing, ?This land is your land, this land is my land?
                                  Em                                              C  
It goes like this, you take your hand
                                G                                                                 D  
You lift it up and you put it on your heart
                                     Em  
And there you stand
