Chords with lyrics
Capo 3
VERSE
C majorC A minorAm
You think you own what ever land you land on
C majorC A minorAm
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
FF C majorC Dm7Dm7
But I know every rock and tree and creature
FF G+G A minorAm
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
C majorC A minorAm
You think the only people who are people
C majorC A minorAm
Are the people who look and think like you
FF C majorC Dm7Dm7
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
FF G+G C majorC
You'll learn things you never knew, you never knew
CHORUS
A minorAm FF
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
A minorAm E minorEm
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grins
FF G+G C majorC A minorAm
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain
Dm7Dm7 E minorEm
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
FF G+G C majorC
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
VERSE
C majorC A minorAm
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
C majorC A minorAm
Come taste the sun sweet berries of the earth
FF C majorC Dm7Dm7
Come roll in all the riches all around you
A minorAm G+G
And for once never wonder what they're worth
C majorC A minorAm
The rain storm and the river are my brothers
C majorC A minorAm
The herron and the otter are my friends
FF C majorC Dm7Dm7
And we are all connected to each other
FF G+G C majorC
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends
FF
How high does the Sickamore grow?
Bb7Bb7 G+G G7G7
if you cut it down then you'll never know
CHORUS
A minorAm E minorEm FF
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
A minorAm E minorEm
For whether we are white or copper skinned
FF G+G C majorC
Can we sing with all the voices of the mountains
Dm7Dm7 E minorEm
Can we paint with all the colors of the wind
FF G+G
You can own the earth and still
C majorC A minorAm
All you'll own is earth until
Dm7Dm7 G+G C majorC
