Spirit Horse Of The Cherokee chords by Manowar

• Difficulty: Beginner

Key: Em

🤘 Intro:

N.C.
The trail of tears began for the Cherokee
N.C.
The white man came to trade and borrow
N.C.
But then, they would not leave
N.C.
Some of us were taken by boat and died at sea
N.C.
Those of us who lived were sold to slavery

Em

🤘 Verse :

   Em
We welcomed them as brothers knowing nothing of their greed
     Em
Born hunters, not the hunted as the white man hunts for me
          Em
We are descendants of the animals we live among them free
    Em
Our trail of tears would end one day at Wounded Knee

Em                      G
To fight and die by the open sky
D                      Em
Spirit Horse, ride for me
