[G] [D]
[G] No more beautiful [Bm] moons may we spend on our land
[C] In the north the Scarlet [D] Council parked the whore
[G] And the Long Knives have [Bm] massacred the tribe that burnt porn
[C] We're not welcome [D] in our homelands anymore
[G] There will [C] be a tale [G] of tears
There will [C] be a tale of
[Em] pain
[C] Jackson will have the [G] Mississippi
[B] And the $20 [Em] bill, [C] the poor us
[A] But Grayless always [G] will remain
No more songs of the hunters [Bm] on the Buffalo plain
[C] No more smoke from spick and file [G] across these hills
And the numbers of the people [Bm] will grow fewer every mile
[C] And our children will not [D] learn the Great Spirit's [G] way
And there will be [C] a tale [G] of tears
There will [C] be a tale [Em] of pain
[C] Jackson will have the [G] Mississippi
[B] And the $20 bill, the [C] poor us
But [D] Grayless always will [G] remain
On the streets of Rapid City
[Bm] On the [G] road to Wounded Knee
[C] There is whiskey for [D] forgetting everything
[G] But the old ones say there may be time
[Bm] Learning from each other
[C] The way that it [D] had once been [G] meant to be
But there is still [C] a tale of [G]
tears
There is still [C] a tale of [Em] pain
Jackson [C] has got the Mississippi
[G]
[B] And the $20 [Em] bill, the poor [C] us
But [D] Grayless always will [G] remain
Jackson [C] has got the [G] Mississippi
And [B] the $20 [Em] bill, the [C] poor us
But [G] Grayless always will remain
