_ _ [G] I woke this evening with the smell of wood smoke clinging
Like a gentle cobweb hanging upon a painted _ teepee
_ _ _ Oh, I went to see my chieftain with my war lance and my woman
For he told us that the yellow moon would very soon be leaving
_ _ _ This [Eb] _ I can't believe I said, I can't believe our _ warlord's dead
_ Oh, we will not leave the chosen ones to the buzzards and the soldiers' _ guns
_ [Db] Oh, [Ebm] great father of the [Eb] _ Iroquois, ever since I was young
[Db] _ _ I've read the writing [Abm] of the smoke [Ebm] and breastfed on [Eb] the sound of drums
_ [Bbm] I've [Ebm] _ learned to hurl the _ [Eb] tomahawk and ride a painted pony wild _ _ _
To run the gauntlet of [Abm] the zoo [Eb] to make our chieftain's daughter mine
_ And now you ask that I should watch the red man's race be slowly crushed
_ _ [Bbm] What _ [Eb] kind of words [Abm] are these to hear [Eb] from yellow dog whom a white [F] man fears?

_ [C] _ _ _ [G] _ I take [Bm] only what is [Em] mine, _ lord, [G] _ _ _ [C] my pony, _ [D] my squaw, my [Em] _ child
[D] _
I _ _ [G] _ _ _
[Bm] can't stay to [Em] see you die [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[D] along with my [Em] tribe's _ [D] pride
_ I _ _ [Am] _ _ _
go to search [D] for the yellow _ _ moon _ [G] and the _ fathers _ of our [C] _ sons _
_ _ _ [Em] Where the red sun [C] _
_ sinks [G] in the hills [C] [F] of _ gold [Am] and the _ [C] healing [G] _ _ _ waters [C] _ run
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
[Bm] Trampling down the [Em] prairie roads, [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ leaving [D] hoof tracks in the [Em] _ sand
[D] _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ Those [Bm] who wish to [Em] follow _ me [G] _ I _ [C] _ _ _ _
[D] welcome with my [Em] _ _ [D] hands
_ I've _ [Am] _ _ _ _
heard from passing [D] _ _ renegades _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
Geronimo was [C] _ dead _
_ _ He'd [Em] been laying _ [Am] _
down his [C] weapon [F] _
when _ _ [Am] they filled [Bm] him _ full [E] of lead _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ [D] _ _ _

Now there seems no [G] reason why _
[C] I should carry [G] _ on _
[Am] In this land [G] that once was my land [C] I can find a [D] home
_ [Em] It's lonely and [G] it's quiet and [C] the horse soldiers [G] are coming
_ [Am] And I think it's [G] time I strung my bow [C] and ceased my senseless [D] _
_ running
_ But _ [Em]
soon I'll find [G] the yellow moon _
[C] along with my loved [G] ones
Where [Am] the buffaloes graze [G] in clover fields [C] without the sound of [D] guns _
[Em] And the red [D] sun sinks last [C] into the hills [G] of gold _
[A] At peace to this young [B] warrior _
_ [C] with _ _ _ a bullet [Em] in his heart _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
