INTRO:
Ab Ab Ab Ab Ab

VERSE:
Ab          Eb
Can you remember the times
Gb              Fm Ab
 To you have held your head high
 Db       Eb      Ab
Told all your friends of your Indian claim
 Eb         Ab    Ab Bb C
Proud good lady and proud good man
   Db       Eb     Ab
Some great great grandfather from Indian blood sprang
     Eb      Bb       Eb Eb Db Bb
And you feel in your heart for these ones


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


VERSE:
    Ab           Eb
When a war between nations is lost
   Gb           Fm Ab
The loser we know pays the cost
  Db    Eb    Ab
But even when Germany fell to your hands
  Eb         Ab     Ab Bb C
Consider dear lady, consider dear man
   Db       Eb      Ab
You left them their pride and you left them their lands
   Eb      Bb      Eb Eb Db Bb
And what have you done to these ones


VERSE:
    Ab            Eb
Has a change come about my dear man
  Gb            Fm Ab
Or are you still taking our lands
  Db    Eb    Ab
A treaty forever your senators sign
   Eb         Ab   Ab Bb C
They do dear lady, they do dear man
     Db     Eb   Ab
And the treaties are broken again and again
   Eb      Bb      Eb Eb Db Bb
And what will you do for these ones


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