INTRO:
AbAb Ab AbAb Ab AbAb

VERSE:
AbAb          Eb MajorEb
Can you remember the times
GbGb              F minorFm AbAb
 To you have held your head high
 DbDb       Eb MajorEb      AbAb
Told all your friends of your Indian claim
 Eb MajorEb         AbAb    AbAb Bb majorBb C majorC
Proud good lady and proud good man
   DbDb       Eb MajorEb     AbAb
Some great great grandfather from Indian blood sprang
     Eb MajorEb      Bb majorBb       Eb MajorEb Eb DbDb Bb majorBb
And you feel in your heart for these ones


VERSE:
     AbAb           Eb MajorEb
Oh, it`s written in books and in songs
   GbGb            F minorFm   AbAb
That we`ve been mistreated and wronged
   DbDb    Eb MajorEb   AbAb
Well over and over I hear those same words
   Eb MajorEb        AbAb    AbAb Bb majorBb C majorC
From you good lady and you good man
   DbDb    Eb MajorEb     AbAb
Well listen to me if you care where we stand
     Eb MajorEb      Bb majorBb      Eb MajorEb Eb DbDb Bb majorBb
And you feel you`re a part of these ones


VERSE:
    AbAb           Eb MajorEb
When a war between nations is lost
   GbGb           F minorFm AbAb
The loser we know pays the cost
  DbDb    Eb MajorEb    AbAb
But even when Germany fell to your hands
  Eb MajorEb         AbAb     AbAb Bb majorBb C majorC
Consider dear lady, consider dear man
   DbDb       Eb MajorEb      AbAb
You left them their pride and you left them their lands
   Eb MajorEb      Bb majorBb      Eb MajorEb Eb DbDb Bb majorBb
And what have you done to these ones

VERSE:
    AbAb            Eb MajorEb
Has a change come about my dear man
  GbGb            F minorFm AbAb
Or are you still taking our lands
  DbDb    Eb MajorEb    AbAb
A augmentedA treaty forever your senators sign
   Eb MajorEb         AbAb   AbAb Bb majorBb C majorC
They do dear lady, they do dear man
     DbDb     Eb MajorEb   AbAb
And the treaties are broken again and again
   Eb MajorEb      Bb majorBb      Eb MajorEb Eb DbDb Bb majorBb
And what will you do for these ones


VERSE:
     AbAb            Eb MajorEb
Oh, it`s all in the past they will say
     GbGb          F minorFm AbAb
But it`s still going on here today
   DbDb     Eb MajorEb      AbAb
The governments now want the Navaho land
 Eb MajorEb        AbAb      AbAb Bb majorBb C majorC
That of the Inuit and the Cheyenne
   DbDb      Eb MajorEb      AbAb
It`s here and it`s now you can help us dear man
 Eb MajorEb            AbAb Ab AbAb Ab
Now that the buffalo`s gone.
