G
Now the first time I saw Woody,
he was standing in our yard.
C
It was springtime 1935,
we was poor and times were hard.
D
He said I'll pay for a room and board,
maybe a month or two.
C
My name's Woodrow Guthrie,
D
and I'm just a rambler through
G
C
G
But call me Woody, my friends all do
D
G
I might sing a little song for you
Now it was just my mom and me,
big house all alone
C
My daddy had gone to fight a war
and just never made it home
D
But each night old Woody'd
play his guitar
and make up songs to sing
C
And when we'd sing that midnight special
D
G
we would make them rafters ring
C
And we'd get happy, but we understood
G
C
D
Times were hard, but for a while,
Mama, she took to Woody,
said she liked his singing style
C
God, she looked so pretty
when Woody made her smile
D
Taught me how to cuss and smoke
and sing and play guitar
C
I ought to say a prayer to heaven
G
D
G
and wish upon a star
C
Yeah, I knew Woody and Mama
G
had been ramblin' in the night
C
I was only twelve years old,
D
G
but I could see it in their eyes
Mama came to me one hot July day
C
Said our Woody's leavin' son,
she wiped the tear away
D
Woody said this ramblin' fever's
a mighty heavy load
C
Then he picked up his guitar and his sack
D
G
and rolled on down the road
Goodbye Woody,
C
G
we know you're feelin' bad
D
G
what a time we've had
Now many a year has come and gone
and I'm old but still alive
C
My old mind has wandered
back
to the summer of thirty -five
D
Time has taken everything,
one thing I still own
C
I can still pick up my guitar
D
and sing a Woody Guthrie song
G
C
G
This land is your land, with a do -re -mi
C
G
Let the midnight special shine as ever,
D
G
love, and light on me
So long, it's been good to know you
Cause I'm goin' down the road
