Johnny Cash - Opening The West: chords

B
And the shining Rocky Mountains
looked down on the people coming
Strong and sturdy freedom lovin'
settlers cowboys pioneers
Now no foreign crown would rule them
Now a nation strong was standing
even bigger was it growing
                E
added Iowa, Wisconsin then
broke through the shining mountains
B
Staked a claim on California
Panned the gold out of its rivers
irrigated desert valleys
Oregon, Minnesota, Kansas now were
added to the total
Making 34 to number of the States now…
