Near the relief office - I see my people

And some are grumblin' and some are wonderin'
A D
If this land's still made for you and me.

[Chorus]

This land is your land, and this land is my land

Rainbow Connection

[Verse 1]
D Bm G A
Why are there so many songs about rainbows,
D Bm G
and what's on the other side?
D Bm G A
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions.
D Bm G
Rainbows have nothing to hide.

[Pre-chorus]
Gmaj7
So we've been told and some choose to believe it.
A7 A
I know they're wrong; wait and see.

[chorus]
G A D Bm
Some day we'll find it, the rainbow connection,
G A D
The lovers, the dreamers, and me.

[Verse 2]
D Bm G A
Who said that every wish will be heard and answered
D Bm G
and wished on a morning star?
D Bm G A
Somebody thought of that and someone believed him.
D Bm G
Look what it's done so far.

[Pre-chorus]
Gmaj7
What's so amazing and keeps us stargazing?
A7 A
What do we think we might see?

[chorus]
G A D Bm
Some day we'll find it, the rainbow connection,
G A D
The lovers, the dreamers and me.

[Bridge]
D A G
all of us under its spell,
G Em A A#maj7
We know that it's probably magic …………

[Verse 3] (Key change)
E C#m A B
Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices?
E C#m A
I've heard them calling my name.
E C#m A B
are these the sweet sounds that called the young sailors?
E C#m A
I think that they're one and the same.

[Pre-chorus]
Amaj7
I've heard it too many times to ignore it.
B7 B
It's something that I'm supposed to be.

[chorus]
A B E C#m
Someday we'll find it the rainbow connection,

the lovers, the dreamers and me.

I Don’t Want No More of Camping Life

Chorus:
    A7                      D
Oh, I don't want no more of camping life
D
Please mom, I wanna go
D
But they won't let me go
D             A7         D   A7 D
Please mom, I want to go hoo-oo-ome

D                                    A7
The leaders that they give you, they say they're mighty fine
A7                                       D
But when they take their makeup off they look like Frankenstein

(chorus in between each verse)

The nurses that they give you, they say they're mighty fine
But when you break a finger, they break the other nine

The donuts that they give you, they say they're mighty fine
But one rolled off the table and killed a friend of mine

The toilets that they give you, they say they're mighty fine
But when you go to flush them, they cut off your behind

The water that they give you, they say it's mighty fine
But when you take a sip of it, it tastes like turpentine

The lifeguards that they give you, they say they're mighty fine
But when you say you're drowning, they say you're doing fine
