[A]I was the [E]youngest boy in a [D]family of [A]four
We [D]lived in Okla[A]homa the wind whistled thru our [E]door
We [A]scratched out a [E]living in the d[D]irt and and the [A]clay
[D]I never will for[A]get it [E]untill my dying [A]days
[A]The dust storms they [E]came at us the [D]sky turned cold and [A]black
We [D]packed up our b[A]elonging and never looked [E]back
We [A]rode out west [E]toward the sun just a [D]heartbeat [A]away
[D]I never will forg[A]et it [E]untill my dying [A]days
We were [A]Bakersfield [D]Bound and the [E]California [F#m]dream
Down the [D]road lay the [A]promised lands our fields would all turn [E]green
We were [A]Bakersfield [D]bound like so [E]many gone [F#m]before
Just to [D]cross our River [A]Jordan and [E]reach the other [A]shore
[A]When we first set eyes on The [E]San Joaquin
Was like a [D]friend we always [A]knew
The [D]gates swing open so [A]far and wide even God could drive [E]thru
We [A]worked the crops from [E]dawn to dust [D]shared along the [A]way
[D]I never will for[A]get it [E]untill my dying [A]days
We were [A]Bakersfield [D]Bound and the [E]California [F#m]dream
Down the [D]road lay the [A]promised lands our fields had all turned [E]green
We were [A]Bakersfield [D]bound like so [E]many gone [F#m]before
Just to [D]cross our River [A]Jordan and [E]reach the other [A]shore
[D]Crossed our River [A]Jordan to [E]reach the other [A]shore
