Dm
Well you look just like General Custer

C
On the day of his last stand

 Dm
Heading up into the black hills

  C
Glorious and grand

     Dm
I saw it by your side

  C
A map in your hand

 Dm
Heading up into the rain

         C                      Dm (intro) X2
Singing "This land is your land"

Dm
Now I've seen your dust a-rising

  C
And I've seen your numbers swell

  Dm
I've seen you crossing the badlands

  C
And I've heard your captains yell

   Dm
I've watched you when you're sleeping

   C
I've seen you filling up your can

   Dm
Thinking as you work

  C                              Dm (intro X1)
That this land is your land

Dm
But now you're bursting into my country

  C
You're messing up my fields

  Dm
You're playing games with my holy places

   C
You're tearing the earth with your wheels

  Dm
Right now your star is ascending

   C
And your head is bursting with pride

   Dm
But I wonder if Custer was still singing

    C                              Dm
"This land is my land" when he died

                      C                     Dm
Was he still singing "this is my land" when he died

                         C             Dm
Was he singing that it's my land when he died

     C                      Dm
Was he singing when he died

     C                      Dm
Was he singing when he died

     C                              Dm
Was he singing it's my land when he died

     C            Dm
When he died...

     C                      Dm
Was he singing when he died
