Intro:
DmDm

Verse:
FF            C majorC            Bb majorBb
I am just a Yankee boy, born and bred in Boston
                C majorC
Where there ain’t no wide open spaces to get lost in
    FF           C majorC
But out here that’s all there is
  DmDm         C majorC      Bb majorBb
And when the wind gets blowing, it makes a certain sound
C majorC           G minorGm
Almost like the ocean

Pre-Chorus:
          C majorC
There’s a new moon
    A7A7       DmDm
And the latest country tunes
Eb MajorEb       Bb majorBb
Droning on the radio

Chorus:
  FF     DmDm C majorC
Oklahoma, Oklahoma
    Bb majorBb      FF
I’m so far away from home
                  Bb majorBb
And I’m feeling low and lonesome tonight
    C majorC                   DmDm
As the wind howls in from across the great divide

Verse:
 FF           C majorC
I know I’m only standing on a giant’s shoulders
    Bb majorBb             C majorC
I ain’t getting no younger and this world keeps getting colder
  FF        C majorC      DmDm        C majorC    Bb majorBb
Sometimes I feel I’m barely on my way to where I’m bound
             C majorC        G minorGm
Sometimes I wish I could lay this hammer down

Pre-Chorus:
            C majorC
Hellfire and brimstone
       A7A7
There’s some preacher
    DmDm Eb MajorEb   Bb majorBb
Droning on... the radio

Chorus:
  FF     DmDm C majorC
Oklahoma, Oklahoma
    Bb majorBb      FF
I’m so far away from home
                  Bb majorBb
And I’m feeling low and lonesome tonight
    C majorC                   DmDm
As the wind howls in from across the great divide

Chorus:
  FF     DmDm C majorC
Oklahoma, Oklahoma
    Bb majorBb      FF
I’m so far away from home
                  Bb majorBb
And I’m feeling low and lonesome tonight
    C majorC                   DmDm
As the wind howls in from across the great divide
