Guitar chords with lyrics

  • Capo on 5th
Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Difficulty: Novice

Verse 1:
G
This old town's

Been a-bringin' me down
    C                 G
For what seems like a lifetime
G
I made a lot of noise

Tryin' to find that voice
D
That I'd one day call mine
G
When I turned eighteen
     C
Granddaddy told me
        G           D         C
He said "Boy, you're the lost generation"
G
So I packed my bags
     C
With what little I had
      D          C          G
And I set out to prove him wrong


Chorus:
                  C   G
I'm headed out to Oklahoma
C                         G
Out with the dust and the wind
C              G
I got a funny feelin', baby
      D
That we're gonna fit right in
G            C   G
Out there in Oklahoma
C                G
I'll be standin' tall
C                       G
If anyone asks, you can find me out
        D         C             G
In the land where work conquers all


Verse 2:
G
I turned my back

And I got sidetracked
         C                 G
Before I ever hit Birmingham
G
It took a summer shoein' horses

In northern Georgia
   D
To find out who I am
        C             G
I hit a hot streak in Biloxi
                   C
Lost it all by San Antone
    G                    C
But sooner or later that Sooner State's
      D        C      G
Gonna be where I call home


Chorus:
                  C   G
I'm headed out to Oklahoma
C                         G
Out with the dust and the wind
C              G
I got a funny feelin', baby
      D
That we're gonna fit right in
G            C   G
Out there in Oklahoma
C                G
I'll be standin' tall
C                       G
If anyone asks, you can find me out
        D         C             G
In the land where work conquers all


Verse 3:
G
Thought I'd hit it big

Out west on a rig
          C                G
But I's a couple years too late
G
So I got me some land

Just north of Durant
        D
Hope it pays off big one day
G
What I found here
      C
Ain't easy
       G                C
But it suits me all the same
   G                 C
So look me up in the pages
            D       C        G
If you ever make it out this way


Chorus:
                  C   G
I'm headed out to Oklahoma
C                         G
Out with the dust and the wind
C              G
I got a funny feelin', baby
      D
That we're gonna fit right in
G            C   G
Out there in Oklahoma
C                G
I'll be standin' tall
C                       G
If anyone asks, I found my path
        D         C             G
In the land where work conquers all
       D          C              G
In the land where work conquers all
