   E minorEm   C majorC     G+G   D MajorD
We're a part of something special
    E minorEm   C majorC     G+G   D MajorD
we're a part of something special
    E minorEm   C majorC     G+G   D MajorD
we?re a part of something special
    E minorEm    C majorC
It?s a crack in time
 G+G   D MajorD
A augmentedA wrinkle
    E minorEm    C majorC      G+G  D MajorD
Fallen from the nest, young eagle
    E minorEm        C majorC
I will pull my feathers out
   G+G  D MajorD
stay humble
   E minorEm  C majorC  G+G  D MajorD
stay humble
   E minorEm  C majorC  G+G  D MajorD
stay humble
   E minorEm  C majorC  G+G  D MajorD
stay humble
  E minorEm   C majorC  G+G  D MajorD
stay humble
 E minorEm    C majorC         G+G  D MajorD
Uncle Mana taught us like an elder
E minorEm  C majorC      G+G   D MajorD
took asunder older brother

he said
 E minorEm   C majorC    G+G   D MajorD
this is powerful country
 E minorEm   C majorC    G+G   D MajorD
this is powerful country
  E minorEm    C majorC    G+G   D MajorD
we felt like we were returning
    E minorEm  C majorC
to our land rebels
    G+G        D MajorD
and the shepherds in the sea
E minorEm     C majorC        G+G      D MajorD
takers are taking what the leavers will leave
  E minorEm   C majorC      G+G   D MajorD
so grieve me the black prince cicada
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
such a loud voice for a tiny creature
E minorEm   C majorC        G+G    D MajorD
teach me to let go of all of my pain
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
I do forgive, I don't forget these things
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
 I do forgive, I don't forget these things
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
We burn the bluegum for a safe passageway
    E minorEm       C majorC                G+G    D MajorD
drink of the earth smoke of the dirt and my warpaint was red
E minorEm       C majorC        G+G    D MajorD
ochre clay Hoka hey Red ochre clay
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
Hoka hey       Red ochre clay
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
 Our prayers igniting, cast out into the shire
        E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
 and the song of our struggle came straight from the fire,
it goes:
C majorC    D MajorD    B minorBm
holy holy grandmother,
        C majorC    D MajorD    B minorBm
 we sing wash us clean of our pain and suffering
C majorC        D MajorD            B minorBm
 give us strength for our new beginnings
        C majorC
 In my deepest grace I sing
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD

E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD

E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
In my dreams a whirling aboriginal man
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
gave me your hat and your past in one hand he said,
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
you've come to be with rainbow serpent
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
red hands red land red worship
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
 red hands red land red worship
E minorEm   C majorC                G+G    D MajorD
just then I heard bush mama crying in the chasms
E minorEm   C majorC                G+G    D MajorD
for the stolen generation and the children who haven't
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
 come home come home stay home
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
come home come home stay home
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
my bullets are my words and my words are my weapons
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
 so chain me to the pipeline for our rivers and mountains
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
we sing today's a good day for my ego to die
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
 today's a good day for my ego to die
    E minorEm   C majorC                G+G    D MajorD
spirit live on in my heart, in my body, my mind
E minorEm   C majorC                G+G    D MajorD
then sister crow came with the murder that day
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
so we tattoed the bird nation onto our faces
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
she said we sing to let go of all of our pain
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
we dance the story to remember when things changed
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
    remember when things changed
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
    remember when things changed
C majorC    D MajorD    B minorBm
holy holy grandmother,
        C majorC    D MajorD    B minorBm
we sing wash us clean of our pain and suffering
    C majorC    D MajorD    B minorBm
give us strength for our new beginnings
    C majorC
In my deepest thanks I sing
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD

E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
We danced the ghost dance in two separate countries
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
To this old song so familiar to memory
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
the road will teach you how to love and let go
    E minorEm   C majorC                G+G    D MajorD
it can be lonely but it's the only thing that we've ever known
    E minorEm   C majorC                G+G    D MajorD
it can be lonely but it's the only thing that we've ever known
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
Our mommas told us let go of jealousy
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
and for vagabonds and vagrants, that won't come so easy
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
we've come from nothing, nothing
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
we have come from nothing, nothing
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
teach me to love you in a different way
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
 same cuts same guts same crazy
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
same cuts same guts same crazy
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
I traveled halfway across the country and back
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
only to find love undefined and I'm OK with that
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
cause I'm gonna be a guardian be a man among men
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
be a guardian be a man among men
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
or be a woman among women be a guardian
E minorEm   C majorC            G+G    D MajorD
be my friend ooh be my friend
   E minorEm   C majorC     G+G   D MajorD
We're a part of something special
    E minorEm   C majorC     G+G   D MajorD
we're a part of something special
    E minorEm   C majorC     G+G   D MajorD
we?re a part of something special
    E minorEm    C majorC
It?s a crack in time
 G+G   D MajorD
A augmentedA wrinkle
    E minorEm    C majorC      G+G  D MajorD
Fallen from the nest, young eagle
    E minorEm        C majorC
I will pull my feathers out
   G+G  D MajorD
stay humble
   E minorEm  C majorC  G+G  D MajorD
