(Sing Chorus two times to end) The chord progression remains the same throughout the entire song, and the lyrics alternate from chorus to verse to chorus Corrected by drawhard
"This Land is your Land" was constructed in the folk tradition -- the words contributed by Guthrie imbue a traditional melody with a political message, creating a singalong that embodies Guthrie's socialist agenda: This land is your land, this land is my landFrom California, to the New York IslandFrom the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream watersThis land was made for you and me At Barack Obama's inauguration celebration, Bruce Springsteen invited Pete Seeger to the microphone to sing "This Land is your Land", which he called "perhaps the greatest song ever written about our home". Guthrie's guitars were adorned with the words "This machine kills fascists", and he sung with a knowing Everyman style that Dylan would channel to international acclaim
A voice was chanting, the fog was lifting This land was made for you and me.This land is your land, This land is my land, From California to the New York island; From the red wood forest to the Gulf Stream waters; This land was made for you and me

The Story Of Woody Guthrie's 'This Land Is Your Land' : NPR
Original Lyrics "This Land Is Your Land" wasn't released by Folkways until 1951, but the song was originally written in February 1940, when Woody Guthrie first arrived in New York City from Oklahoma. So thank God that they recorded something, and our family was able to get some royalties from that." Later in his life, Guthrie lost his ability to play guitar and sing, but he continued to write and inspire a younger generation of performers

Repeat Chorus Verse 4: G D As I went walking I saw a sign there A D And on the sign it said "No Trespassing." G D But on the other side it didn't say nothing, A D That side was made for you and me. Repeat Chorus Verse 3: G D When the sun came shining, and I was strolling A D And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling G D A voice was chanting, As the fog was lifting, A D This land was made for you and me
I've roamed and rambled and I followed my footsteps To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts; And all around me a voice was sounding: This land was made for you and me. When the sun came shining, and I was strolling, And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling, As the fog was lifting a voice was chanting: This land was made for you and me
