 CCsus/FCCsus/F
 I'm writing this here letter from aboard a DC8
 CCsus/FCBbFC
 Heading into Angel town I hope it's not too late    
 CCsus/F
 It rained in New York City
 CCsus/F
Mr rock n roll couldn't stay
 CCsus/F
The crowd was mad and we were  had
 CBbFC
 Chasing the sun back to L.A.     
 GAmGAm
Have breakfest with me mamma I hope they'll let us in
 GAmGBbFC
 Got a leather jacket on I know that it's a sin Gunga Din
 CCsus/FCCsus/F
 Sitting backwards on this airplane is bound to make me sick
 CCsus/F
 Spend your life on a DC8
 CBbFC
 Never get to bed settle down settle down
 CCsus/FCCsus/F
 Now we're over Kansas  where the clouds are  floating by
 CCsus/F
The whole wide world looks back at me
 CBbFC
Just like a mushroom pie I wonder why
 GAmGAm
Have breakfest with me mamma I hope they'll let us in
 GAmGBbFC
 Got a leather jacket on I know that it's a sin Gunja Din

The Byrds Deportee written by Woodie Guthrie/M. Hoffman

 DGD
 The crops are all in and the peaches are rotting
 DADD7
 The oranges are packed in their creosote green    
 GD
Your flying them back to the Mexican border
 A7D
To spend all their money to wade back again
 GDA7DD7
Goodbye to Juan goodbye  Roseleta  adios mis amigos Jesus and Maria
 GD
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane
 A7D
And all they will call you will be deportee
 DGD
 Some of us are illegal and others not wanted
 DADD7
 Our work contracts  out and we have to move on   
 GD
 Six hundred miles to that Mexican border
 AD
They chase us like outlaws like rustlers and thieves
 GDA7DD7
Goodbye to Juan goodbye  Roseleta  adios mis amigos Jesus and Maria
 GD
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane
 AD
And all they will call you will be deportee
 DGD
 The sky plane caught fire over Los Gatos  canyon
 DA7D
 A fireball of lightning it shook  all our hills
 GD
 Who are all these firends who are scattered like dry leaves
 A7D
The radio said they were just deportees
 GDA7DD7
Goodbye to Juan goodbye  Roseleta  adios mis amigos Jesus and Maria
 GD
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane
 AD
And all they will call you will be deportee
