[Intro]
G D A7 D
 
 
[Verse 1]
     D         D7             G
Oh, give me a home where the buffalo roam
           D           Hm         Em  A7
Where the deer and the antelope play
       D         D7         G         Gm
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word
          D             A7        D
And the skies are not cloudy all day
 
 
[Chorus]
 A7                D
Home, home on the range
           Hm          E7         A7
Where the deer and the antelope play
       D         D7         G         Gm
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word
          D             A7        D
And the skies are not cloudy all day
 
 
[Verse 2]
     D            D7               G
The red man was pressed from this part of the west
          D           Hm      Em  A7
It's not likely he'll ever return
        D            D7          G        Gm
To the banks of Red River where seldom if ever
      D         A7              D
His flickering campfires still burn
 
 
[Chorus]
 A7                D
Home, home on the range
           Hm          E7         A7
Where the deer and the antelope play
       D         D7         G         Gm
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word
          D             A7        D
And the skies are not cloudy all day
 
 
[Verse 3]
    D         D7              G
How often at night when the heavens are bright
           D               Hm         Em  A7
I see the light of those flickering stars
        D           D7       G           Gm
Have I laid there amazed and asked as I gazed
           D      A7            D
If their glory exceeds that of love
 
 
[Chorus]
 A7                D
Home, home on the range
           Hm          E7         A7
Where the deer and the antelope play
       D         D7         G         Gm
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word
          D             A7        D
And the skies are not cloudy all day
 
 
[Outro]
G D A7 D
