Chorus:
             C                       G
This land is your land, this land is my land
          D7                      G
From Cali-fornia, to the New York Island
                 C                          G
From the redwood forest, to the Gulf stream waters
D7                             G
This land was made for you and me

             C                       G
As I was walking a ribbon of highway
          D7                      G
I saw above me an endless skyway
         C                          G
I saw below me a golden valley
D7                             G
This land was made for you and me

And so on...
The chord progression remains the same throughout the entire song,
and the lyrics alternate from chorus to verse to chorus. At the end
there is a double chorus.
