[C]Oh, give me a home where the [F]buffalo roam And the [C]deer and the antelope [G7]play Where [C]seldom is heard a [F]discouraging word And the [C]skies are not [G7]cloudy all [C]day

[C]Home, [G7]home on the [C]range Where the [Am]deer and the [D7]antelope [G7]play Where [C]seldom is heard a [F]discouraging word And the [C]skies are not [G7]cloudy all [C]day

How [C]often at night when the [F]heavens are bright With the [C]light from the glittering [G7]stars Have I [C]stood there amazed and [F]asked as I gazed If their [C]glory ex[G7]ceeds that of [C]ours

[C]Home, [G7]home on the [C]range Where the [Am]deer and the [D7]antelope [G7]play Where [C]seldom is heard a [F]discouraging word And the [C]skies are not [G7]cloudy all [C]day

Where the [C]air is so pure, the [F]zephyrs so free The [C]breezes so balmy and [G7]light That I [C]would not exchange my [F]home on the range For [C]all of the [G7]cities so [C]bright

[C]Home, [G7]home on the [C]range Where the [Am]deer and the [D7]antelope [G7]play Where [C]seldom is heard a [F]discouraging word And the [C]skies are not [G7]cloudy all [C]day

Oh, I [C]love those wild flowers in this [F]dear land of ours The [C]curlew, I love to hear [G7]scream And I [C]love the white rocks and the [F]antelope flocks That [C]graze on the [G7]mountaintops [C]green

[C]Home, [G7]home on the [C]range Where the [Am]deer and the [D7]antelope [G7]play Where [C]seldom is heard a [F]discouraging word And the [C]skies are not [G7]cloudy all [C]day
