Intro
Dm

Verse 1
      Dm            C     Am              Dm
When first I did appear upon this native soil
    Dm                Gm         C           Dm
All up and down this country at labor I did toil
    Dm              C               Am           Dm
I slumbered in the moonlight and I rose with the sun
   Dm                  Gm                C          Dm
I rambled through the canyons where the cold rivers run

Verse 2
      Dm               C              Am            Dm
When first I did come down where the land meets the sea
     Dm             Gm            C                  Dm
The people said who are you and what would your name be
   Dm             C       Am            Dm
I said I have no home and I am no man's son
      Dm            Gm           C              Dm
'Twas inland I was born and from inland that I come

Chorus
        Am              Dm
In the good land I was young and I was strong
        Am              Dm
No one dared to call me son
       Am
Happy just to see my day's work done
                   Dm
See my day's work done

Interlude
C Am Dm

Verse 3
       Dm               C                Am                Dm
So I swung an axe as a timberjack and I worked the Quebec mines
    Dm              Gm       C              Dm
And on the golden prairie I rode the big combines
   Dm                  C         Am            Dm
I sailed the maritime waters of many a seaport town
           Dm              Gm             C               Dm
Built the highways and the byways to the western salmon grounds

Interlude
Am Dm

Verse 4
      Dm             C               Am                 Dm
I've gazed upon the good times I've seen the bad times, too
      Dm              Gm              C             Dm
Felt many a cold and bitter wind and many a mornin' dew
      Dm                   C             Am              Dm
I've watched the country growin' like a fair and mighty thing
    Dm                 Gm                C                   Dm
And on the still of a summer night I've heard the mountains ring

Chorus
        Am              Dm
In the good land I was young and I was strong
        Am              Dm
No one dared to call me son
       Am
Happy just to see my day's work done
                   Dm
See my day's work done

Interlude
C Am Dm

Verse 5
    Dm                  C              Am             Dm
But now the seeds are planted and the gates are open wide
    Dm              Gm             C                 Dm
The old ways are forgotten there's no place left to hide
         Dm         C                  Am           Dm
And the legacy I'm leavin' you is not very hard to find
       Dm           Gm                 C            Dm
You'll see it all around you at this crossroads of time
         C                                             Dm
In the sweet soil it's a-growin' at the crossroads of time
