1st verse
Oh, (D) give me a home where the (G) buffalo roam,
Where the (D) deer and the antelope (A) play,
Where (D) seldom is heard a (G) discouraging word
And the (D) skies are not (A) cloudy all (D) day.

Chorus:
(D)Home, (A) home on the (D) range,
Where the deer and the (E7) antelope (A) play
Where (D) seldom is heard a (G) discouraging word
And the (D) skies are not (A) cloudy all (D) day.

2nd verse
Where the air is so pure, the (G) zephyrs so free,
The (D) breezes so balmy and (A) light,
That (D) I would not exchange my (G) home on the range
For (D) all of the (A) cities so (D) bright.

Chorus:

3rd verse
How (D) often at night when the (G) heavens are bright
With the (D) light from the glittering (A) stars
Have I (D) stood here amazed and (G) asked as I gazed
If their (D) glory (A) exceeds that of (D) ours.

Chorus:
