[N] [B]
Hoof prints [F#] and footprints
[B]
Deep ruts [E] the wagons made [B] the victor
[F#] And the loser came [B] by here
[E] [B] No headstones [F#] but these bones
[B]
Bring [E] Mescalero death wounds
[B] See the [E] smooth black nuggets
[F#] By the [B] thousands laying here
Petrified [E] but justified
[F#] Are these [B] Apache tears
Dead grass, [F#] dry roots
[B] Hunger [E] crying in the night
[B] Ghost of [F#] broken hearts
And [B] laws are here
[F#]
[C#] [B] And who saw [F#] the young squaw
[B] They judged [E] by their whiskey [B] law
Tortured [F#] till she [B] died of pain and fear
Where the soldiers [E] lay her back
[F#] Are the black Apache [B]

young men, the [F#] old men
[B]
The guilty [E] and the innocent
[B] Bled red blood [F#] and chilled [B] alike with fear
The [F#] [B] red men, [F#] the white men
[B]
No fight [E] ever took this land
[B]
So don't raise the dust [F#] when you [B] pass here
They're sleeping and [E] in my keeping
[F#] Are these Apache [B] tears
They're sleeping and [E] in our keeping
[F#] Are these Apache tears
