Indian Reservation chords
Paul Revere and the Raiders (John Loudermilk) *

E minorEm

E minorEm              A minorAm
They took the whole Cherokee nation,
          E minorEm
put us on this reservation
           A minorAm
Took away our ways of life,
               E minorEm
the tomahawk and the bow and knife
           A minorAm
Took away our native tongue,
                E minorEm
and taught their English to our young
               A minorAm
And all the beads we made by hand,
            E minorEm
are nowadays made in Japan

E minorEm       B minorBm
Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe
E minorEm        B7B7
So proud to live, so proud to die

E minorEm             A minorAm
They took the whole Indian nation,
            E minorEm
locked us on this reservation
             A minorAm
Though I wear a shirt and tie,
               E minorEm
I'm still part red man deep inside

E minorEm       B minorBm
Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe
E minorEm       B7B7
So proud to live, so proud to die

E minorEm               A minorAm
But maybe someday when they've learned,
            E minorEm  A minorAm   E minorEm
Cherokee nation will return, will return,
A minorAm   E minorEm  A minorAm   E minorEm  A minorAm   E minorEm
will return, will return, will return
