[A] [D] [A] [D]
Many months have come and gone [F] since [G] I wandered from my [E] home
In [A] those Oklahoma hills where I [D] was born
Many a page of life has turned, many [G] a lesson I [E] have learned
Yet [A] I feel like in those hills I still [D] belong
Way down yonder in the Indian Nation
[G] I rode my pony [E] on the reservation
[A] In the Oklahoma hills where I [D] was born
Way down yonder in the Indian Nation
[G] The cowboy's life [E] is my occupation
[A] In the Oklahoma hills where I [D] was born
[Bm] But as I sit here [D] today, [G] many [E] miles I am away
From [A] the place I rode my pony through [D] the draw
Where the oak and blackjack trees [G] kiss the playful [E] prairie breeze
[A] In those Oklahoma hills where [D] I was born
Way down yonder in the Indian [G] Nation
I rode my [E] pony on the [A] reservation
In the Oklahoma hills where [D] I was born
Way down yonder in the Indian [G] Nation
The cowboy's [Bm] life is my [A] occupation
In the Oklahoma hills where [D] I was born

[E] [A#] [A] [F] [C] [D] [F#]
[D] Now as I turn life a page to [G] the land of the great [E] old state
[A] In those Oklahoma hills where [D] I was born
Where the black oil rolls and flows [G] and the snow white [E] cotton grows
[A] In those Oklahoma hills where [D] I was born
Way down yonder in the Indian [G] Nation
I rode my [E] pony on the reservation
[A] In the Oklahoma hills where [D] I was born
Way down yonder in the Indian [G] Nation
The cowboy's [E] life is my [A] occupation
In the Oklahoma hills where [D] I was born
In [E] the [A] Oklahoma hills where [D] I was born
