E MajorE          F# minorF#m
Long time coming to take my hand away
E MajorE           F# minorF#m
She says nothing could take the pain away

Gone to the academy
BB       F# minorF#m    E MajorE        A augmentedA

Little star went rolling up the hill
E MajorE          F# minorF#m
Asked me to come and dance, I said, "I will"
E MajorE           F# minorF#m
These are the days of preparation still

Something is going to happen on that hill

 And little star keeps saying, "Indian was angel praying
G+G    G/F#  E MajorE
Calm and patiently
  G+G G/F#  E MajorE
For us also in wheat
  G+G   G/F#   E MajorE
And save a place for me"
