_ _ _ _ _ _ [C#m] Out in the desert where the wind never [E] _
stops _ _ _ _ [C#m] A few simple people _ try to grow a few [E] crops _
_ _ _ _ [A] Trying to maintain _ _ a life [E] and a home _
_ [A] _ _ Out in land that was there [B] before the [F#] Romans [E] thought of Rome _
_ _ _ _ _ [C#m] A few dozen survivors, ragged [E] but proud _ With _ _ [C#m] a few woolly sheep and an under [E]-gathering cloud _ _
_ _ _ [A] It's never been easy or free [E] from strife But _ _ _ the pulse of the _ [B]
land is the pulse [E] of their life _ _ _
_ _ You [A] thought it was over _ [E] but it's just like before Will _ _ _ _ _ [F#m] there [F#] never be an end to the [E] Indian war? _ _
_ _ _ [A] You thought it was over _ [G#m] but it's just [E] like before _ Will _ _ _ [F#m] _ there never [F#] be an end to [E] the Indian war? _ _

_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C#m] It's not breech-loading rifles _ and [E] wholesale slaughter _ _
_ _ _ [C#m] It's kickbacks and thugs _ and [E] diverted water _ _
_ _ _ [A] Treaties get signed and the papers [E] change hands _ _
_ _ Oh, but they might as well [B] draft these agreements [E] in sand _ _
_ _ _ [C#m] _ Noble savage on the cinema [E] screen _ An _ _ _ [C#m] _ Indian's good _ when he cannot [E] be seen _ _ _
_ _ [A] And the so-called white, _ so [E]-called race _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ [E] Digs for itself [F#]
a pit of [E] disgrace
_ You _ _ _ [A] thought it was over _ but it's just [E] like before _ Will _ _ _ [F#m] _ there never [F#] be an end to the [E] Indian war? _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] You thought it was over but it's just [E] like before Will _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ there [F#] never be an end to [E] the Indian war? _ _
_ _ _ _ [F#m] _ Will there never be [B] an end to [E] the Indian war? _ _
