[Ebm]
I awoke this evening with the smell of wood smoke clinging
Like a gentle cobweb hanging upon a painted teepee
Oh, I went to see my chieftain with my wall and sent my woman
For he told her that the [Ab] yellow moon would very [Abm] soon be [Bbm] leaving
[Ebm] This I can't believe I said, I can't believe [Db] I wall up dead
He would not leave [Abm] the chosen ones to the buzzards and the [Db] soldiers gone
[Ebm] Great harbor of the Uruquois, ever since I [Db] was young
I've read the writing [Abm] of the smoke and breastfed [Db] of the sound of drums
I've [Ebm] lived to curl the tongue of hawk, ride a fainted [Db] pony wild
To run the gauntlet [Abm] of the Sioux, to make a cheesed tongue stone [Db]
mine
[Ebm] Now you have passed you watch, the red man's fate is [Db] slowly crumb
What kind of world [Abm] are these to care, from yellow dark, whom a white [Db] man's fair

go to search by [G] the yellow moon [D] and [G] the fathers of our son

[Em] Where the red [Am] sun sets, [C] in the hills [Am] I'll go, and the healing [G] waters [C] run

And [Am] I think it's time, [G] I strangle my bow, [C] and cease my senses [D] running
[Em] But soon I'll find [G] the yellow moon, [C]
along with my loved [G] one
Where [Am] the buffalo's grazed [G] in the clover fields, [C] without the sound of [D] guns
[Em] And the red sun [G] sings at last, [C] until the hills of [G] gold
And [Am] peace to this young [G] warrior, [C] come
With a bullet, [Em] hey!
