Many a month has come and gone,
C
since I wandered from my home,
D G
in those Oklahoma hills where I was born.
Many a page my life has turned,
C
many a lesson I have learned,
D G
and I feel like in those hills where I belong.
G
'Way down yonder on the Indian Nation,
C
ridin' my pony on the reservation,
D G
in the Oklahoma hills where I was born.
‘Way down yonder on the Indian Nation,
C
a cowboy's life is my occupation,
D G
In those Oklahoma hills where I was born.
G
But as I sit here today,
C
many miles I am away
D G
from the place I rode my pony through the draw.
Where the oak and blackjack trees,
C
kiss the playful prairie breeze,
D G
and I feel like in those hills where I was born.
G
Now as I turn life a page
C
to the land of the great Osage,
D G
in those Oklahoma hills where I was born.
Where the black oil rolls and flows
C
and the snow-white cotton grows,
D G
and I feel like in those hills where I belong.
