GYou’ll be looking at a happy man
Cause you’re the Flucky one, you’re the Clucky one.

Cause you’re the Flucky one, yeah the Clucky one.GC

This Land [D]Woody Guthrie

D This land is G your land, this land is D my land,
From CalifA7ornia to the New York D Island,
From the Redwood G Forests to the Gulf Stream waDters
A7 This land was made for you and D me.

As I was G walking that ribbon of D highway
I saw abA7ove me that endless D skyway
I saw beGlow me that golden D valley
A7 This land was made for you and D me.

I roamed and I G rambled and I followed my D footsteps
To the sparkling A7 sands of her diamond D deserts
While all arGound me a voice was D sounding
A7 This land was made for you and D me.

When the sun came G shining, and I was D strolling
And the wheat fields A7 waving and the dust clouds D rolling
A voice was G chanting and the fog was D lifting,
A7 This land was made for you and D me.

D This land is G your land, this land is D my land,
From CalifA7ornia to the New York D Island,
From the Redwood G Forests to the Gulf Stream waDters
A7 This land was made for you and D me.

This is the ‘middle of the road’ sanitised version - here are a couple of Woody’s more radical verses which give it more ‘edge’

One bright sunny morning, in the shadow of the steeple
At the Relief Office I saw my people
As they stood hungry and I stood asking
Is this land made for you and me ?

Well I roamed and rambled and saw a sign there.
And on the sign it said ‘No Trespassing’
But on the backside it didn’t say nothin.
That side was made for you and me !

Travellin' Soldier [C]The Dixie Chicks

C Two days past 18
He was waiting for the bus in his army greens
Sat Fdown at a booth in a cafe there,
Gave his Corder to a girl with a bow in her hair.
CHe's a little shy so she gives him a smile
And he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
And Ftalking to me ... I'm feeling a little Clow
She said I'm Bboff in an hour and FI know where we can Cgo.
CSo they went down and they sat on the pier,
he said "I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care,
I F got no one... to send a letter Cto.
Would you Bbmind if I sent Fone back here to Cyou?"

Chorus
AmI cried
FNever gonna hold the hand of another Cguy
Too young, for him they told her
GWaitin' for the love of a travellin' soldier
AmOur love will never end
FWaitin' for the soldier to come back Cagain
Never more to be alone
When the Gletter says, a soldier's coming Chome

CSo the letters came from an army camp
In California then Vietnam
And he F told her of his heart
It might be love and C all of things he was so scared of.
He said when it's gettin' kinda rough over here
I think of that day sittin' down at the pier
And F I close my eyes and see your pretty Csmile
Don't Bbworry but I won't be Fable to write for a Cwhile

Chorus

COne Friday night at a football game
The Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang
A Fman said Folks .. would you bow your heads
For a Clist of local Vietnam dead.
Cryin' all alone under the stands
Was a piccolo player in the marching band
And Fone name read and nobody really C cared
But a Bbpretty little girl .. Fwith a bow in her Chair.

AmI cried……..FNever gonna hold the hand of another Cguy
Too young, for him they told her
GWaitin' for the love of a travellin' soldier
AmOur love will never end
FWaitin' for the soldier to come back Cagain
Never more to be alone

Slowing down on the last line

When the Gletter says, a soldier's coming Chome

When All You’ve Got Is A Hammer [Am]Gretchen Peters

Verse 1
AmThere’s a bible on the table
there's a Cbottle on the shelf
there's a Fwoman in the Amkitchen
cryin' E7quietly to herself
Amdown the hallway, in the bedroom
you can Chear his children wail
when Fall you got is a Amhammer
everyE7thing looks like a Amnail.

Verse 2
Amwell he came home from the desert
with a Cmedal on his chest
like a Fhero, like a Amchampion
but he E7felt more like a guest
now he Amsleeps with one eye open
and he Cwakes up scared as hell
and Fall he's got is a Amhammer
and everyE7thing looks like a Amnail.

Chorus
well they Cteach you how to shoot and they Gshow you how to kill
but they Dmdon't show you what to do with this E7hole that you can't fill
so you Amdwell in the darkness of your Csoul like FJonah in the belly of the E7whale
and Fall you got is a Amhammer and everyE7thing looks like a Amnail.

Verse 3
Amwhen a good man in a bad dream
can't Cmake it on his own
when he Fcan't feed his own damn Amchildren
on the E7money that he brings home
and the Amdeck is stacked against him
and he Cknows he's bound to fail
and Fall he's got is a Amhammer
everyE7thing looks like a Amnail.

Chorus x 2

When Fall you’ve got is a Amhammer, everyE7thing looks like a Amnail.
