[Verse 1]
Asus2 Asus2 E Bsus4
When I get back to Oklahoma
C#m7 Bsus4 E Asus2
I'll be a little better off than I am right now
E Bsus4 C#m7
And you talk so strong but you can't stand straight
Bsus4 E Asus2
How'd you fall for a man I've grown to hate?
E Bsus4 C#m7
And I can drive you by where I learned to curse
Bsus4 E
He's got his creased dress whites in an all
Asus2
black hearse
E Bsus4 C#m7
Why's the green more green in the east of Eden?
Bsus4 E Asus2
Swing on by 'cause I know you ain't eaten
E Bsus4 C#m7
Did the city beat your ass like the trash you are?
Bsus4 E Asus2
There's still smoke smell in your old fast car
[Chorus]
Asus2 E Bsus4
You can't hide where you're from
C#m7 Bsus4 Asus2
With nightcrawler blood on your castin' thumb
E Bsus4
You can fight and fiend and sell your guns
C#m7 Bsus4
But you'll always be the Oklahoman
Asus2
son
C#m7 Bsus4 Asus2
You'll always be the Oklahoman son

[Verse 2]
Asus2 Asus2 E Bsus4
When I get back to Oklahoma
C#m7 Bsus4 E Asus2
I'll be a little better off than I am right now
E Bsus4 C#m7
I can't buy her a house like I swore I would
Bsus4 E Asus2
When I was a naive and eager child
E Bsus4 C#m7
And money can't buy an old friend of mine
Bsus4 E Asus2
And money can't buy me back no time
[Chorus]
Asus2 E Bsus4
You can't hide where you're from
C#m7 Bsus4 Asus2
With nightcrawler blood on your castin' thumb
E Bsus4
You can fight and fiend and sell your guns
C#m7 Bsus4
But you'll always be the Oklahoman
Asus2
son
C#m7 Bsus4 Asus2
You'll always be the Oklahoman son

But you'll always be the Oklahoman
