This Land Is Your Land by Woody Guthrie
Tab based on a version from the Asch recordings recorded between 1944 and 1949. Note, this was a time when performers did not always play four beats to a bar and sometimes added a beat or a bar here and there when they felt like it.

By: Woody Guthrie
{capo fret 3}
[intro:] |G |C |
[chorus:]
C F C
This land is your land, this land is my land
G C
From California to the New York Island
C F C
From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream waters
G7 C
This land was made for you and me
[verse: 1]
C F C
As I went walking that ribbon of highway
G C
I saw above me that endless skyway
C F C
I saw below me that golden valley
G7 C
This land was made for you and me
[chorus:]
C F C
This land is your land, this land is my land

From California to the New York Island
C F C
From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream waters
G7 C
This land was made for you and me
[:] |C |F |C |G |C |
[verse: 2]
C F C
I roamed and I rambled and I followed my footsteps
G C
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
C F C
While all around me a voice was sounding
G7 C
This land was made for you and me
[verse: 3]
C F C
When the sun came shining and I was strolling
G C
And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling
C F C
A voice was chanting as the fog was lifting
G7 C
This land was made for you and me
[chorus:]
C F C
This land is your land, this land is my land
G C
From California to the New York Island
C F C
From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream waters
G7 C
This land was made for you and me
[verse: 4] {same as verse 3}
C F C
When the sun came shining and I was strolling
G C
And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling
C F C
A voice was chanting as the fog was lifting
G7 C
This land was made for you and me
