_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [E] My great-grandma's grandma was a full-blood Cherokee.
[Dm] She didn't like the white man [E] except the one she married.
[C] She said they'd rock her [D] with a pistol [E] in her apron
between [G]
[A] her tiny lips, [C] blowing smoke rings [B] at the weaklings.

_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [Em] My great-grandma's grandma was a full-blood Cherokee.
[D]
Fiercely independent, [Em] she broke the social [G] boundary.
[C] _
Our land [D] without a reservation, and [G] her sons [A] were not companions
_ [C] to the building [B] of a nation.

[D] _ [A] Living _ _ [Am] in the land of _ _ [F] the ocean, [Em] _ _ [Am] _ _ the [D] _
locomotives blowing.
[Em] But the steam burned [Am] up, like dreams.
_ _ [Em] And the engines, _ [B] they blew, _ _ _ _ they blew on by.

_ _ _ _ Hey everybody, this is Annie from the Annie Moses Band.
Thank you for enjoying and watching our music video for the song Cherokee
from our American Rhapsody record.
It was so much fun to make this.
First of all, the song is very personal to us.
We actually have a great-grandma's grandma who was a full-blood Cherokee.
And so we wrote this song for her.
And it's always a showstopper in concerts.
Folks love this song.
So we filmed it in Colorado, kind of in the brush country of Colorado.
And obviously there was a big bonfire, and so the whole night we spent
always adding wood to this fire because we needed it to stay really big and hot.
And so it was a long night of recording, but we had such a fun time filming it.
And so hopefully you can feel that energy in the music video.
I want to encourage you, if you like that music video, subscribe to our YouTube channel
and check out our Patreon page.
It's a great way for you to be able to let us know how you love the music of the Annie Moses Band
and [Em] to help us make more music videos like Cherokee.
So thanks for doing that, and we look forward to seeing you out there again.
One of the sponsors for the video you have just seen is the Colorado Cattle Company and Guest Ranch.
We have been here for the last several days filming on some beautiful landscapes over a 10,000 acre ranch.
And I'm here [D] with Tom, who's the proprietor of the ranch,
and he's here to tell you about how you too [D] can see and experience some of these beautiful places.
Colorado Cattle [Em] Company and Guest Ranch is located in northeastern Colorado.
We have 10,000 acres, we have 800 head of cattle, we have 91 horses,
and we entertain guests from all over the world.
We can fulfill any dream, whether it's learning how to ride a horse better,
all the way up to roping live steers from horseback.
And that's what we do.
We're dream deliverers.
You are definitely a dream deliverer for us, and so come out to the [D] Colorado Cattle Company.
