Oklahoma chords by Mark Erelli

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
Dm

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

Pre-Chorus:
                    C
There’s a new moon
        A7             Dm
And the latest country tunes
Eb             Bb
Droning on the radio

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

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

Pre-Chorus:
                        C
Hellfire and brimstone
             A7
There’s some preacher
        Dm Eb     Bb
Droning on... the radio

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

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