Tracy Grammer - Lord Of The Buffalo




CAPO: 1st Fret


N.C.    G+G        C majorC
Once upon a world long gone
           G+G
In the shelter of an early dawn
         D MajorD
They were half a million strong
     C majorC   G+G    D MajorD
Made the valley rumble

              G+G      C majorC
Come the hunters with their rifle balls
             G+G
He heard the fury of his daddy's fall
         D MajorD
Ran crying to his mama's call
    C majorC     G+G    D MajorD
Saw her break and stumble


          G+G        C majorC
So he ran with the swift and young
              G+G
From the hunters and their hungry guns
           D MajorD
Ran until he was the only one
    C majorC   G+G    D MajorD
On the silent prairie


           G+G      C majorC
See him wandering the hills alone
            G+G
Always looking for that haven home
           D MajorD
And the father of his father's own
   C majorC   G+G
And a sanctuary


CHORUS:
          E minorEm   C majorC
There's an endless plain
             G+G
Beyond the curtain of the pouring rain
         D MajorD
Where the golden prairie rolls forever
          G+G
And the tall grass grows
          C majorC
Bitter wind blowing high and wild
          G+G G/F# E minorEm
Have mercy on your wayward child
        D MajorD
In search of an age ago
    C majorC      G+G    D MajorD
And the lord of the buffalo

          G+G       C majorC
Grey Eagle left the blue-eyed town
               G+G
Climbed the mountain where he once looked down
           D MajorD
Saw the worry in the furrowed ground
    C majorC       G+G   D MajorD
And the heart ploughed under


         G+G        C majorC
Woke walking in a dream one night
          G+G
Saw a vision by the foxfire light
          D MajorD
Mighty horns and a coat of white
   C majorC     G+G
And a voice like thunder


CHORUS:
          E minorEm   C majorC
There's an endless plain
             G+G
Beyond the curtain of the pouring rain
         D MajorD
Where the golden prairie rolls forever
          G+G
And the tall grass grows
          C majorC
Bitter wind blowing high and wild
        G+G G/F# E minorEm
Go easy, little wayward child
            D MajorD
There's a home for the restless soul
     C majorC      G+G    D MajorD
Said the lord of the buffalo


INSTRUMENTAL: G+G E minorEm C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G  C majorC G+G G/F# E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G D MajorD


            G+G      C majorC
Last night I heard the coyote wail
           G+G
Slipped away from the white man's jail
           D MajorD
Went running down the trickster trail
     C majorC   G+G    D MajorD
With the moon behind me


        G+G      C majorC
In the hills before sunrise
          G+G
Saw his silhouette against the sky
             D MajorD
I'll be running 'til the day I die
    C majorC    G+G
Or the hunters find me


CHORUS:
          E minorEm   C majorC
There's an endless plain
             G+G
Beyond the curtain of the pouring rain
         D MajorD
Where the golden prairie rolls forever
          G+G
And the tall grass grows
          C majorC
Bitter wind blowing high and wild
           G+G G/F# E minorEm
Gather up your little wayward child
           D MajorD
So the saint and the sinner go
    C majorC      G+G
To the lord of the buffalo
           D MajorD
So the saint and the sinner go
    C majorC      G+G
To the lord of the buffalo
           D MajorD
So the saint and the sinner go
          C majorC     G+G
