_ _ It's been 45 days since the snows have begun
To _ _ _ _ _ _ stare at the fire [F] and long for the sun
As [Eb] the bitter [Bb] winds blow through the mouth [Eb] of the [Bb] pass
I [Eb] _
_ _ _ [Bb] sit here and dream [F] of the buffalo [Eb] grass
[Bb] The _ [Eb] _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ ponies are shaggy, their coats have grown long _ _ _ _
_ With their heads down they huddle [F] together as one
[Eb] At the window my breath forms [Bb] a mist on [Eb] the glass
[Bb] _ _ [Eb] As _ _ [Bb] I patiently wait [F] for the buffalo [Eb] grass _ _ _ _ _
_ The seasons still turn [F] and the prairies still [Bb] yearn
For those who were here [F] long ago
The [Eb] Sioux have all gone and [Bb] the bison [Eb] moved on _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] Soon I will follow [F] them home _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] Molly passed in September and left me alone
_ Now _ _ _ my heart is as heavy [F] and round as a stone
[Eb] And [Bb] too many years have gone by too fast
And _ _ _ I long for the feel [F] of the buffalo [Eb] grass
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Now the animals sleep as the world holds its breath
_ _ _ _ _ _ The woods are as still [F] in silence as death
When [Eb] the mountain streams flow spring [Bb] will follow at [Eb]
last
[Bb] And _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] the wind will blow free through [F] the buffalo [Eb] grass _
_ _ _ _ _ The seasons still turn [F] and the prairies [Bb] still yearn
For those who were here long [F] ago _ _
[Eb] The Sioux have all gone [Bb] and the bison [Eb] moved on _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] Soon I will follow [F] them home _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] The geese will return as a symbol of change _ _ _
_ _ _ The elk will be foraging [F] out on the range
[Eb] Once again nature's palette [Bb] will color [Eb] the past
[Bb] _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ [Bb] And I will find peace in [F] the buffalo [Eb] grass
_ [Bb] _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ [Bb] Yes, I will find peace in the buffalo [Eb] grass _ _ _ _ _
