_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Aurora borealis, _ _ _ the icy sky at night, _ _ [Dm] _ paddles cut the water _ [C] in a long and hurried flight.
From [G] the white men [Bb] to [F] the fields [C] of green, _ _ _ _ _ [G] in the homeland _ [Bb] _ [F] we've never [C]
seen.
_ They _ _ _ _ killed us in our TV, _ they cut our women down, _ [Dm] they might have left some babies _
[C] _ crying on the ground.
But [G] the fire sticks _ [Bb] and [F] the wagons [C] come, _ _ _ _ and [G] the night falls [Bb] _ [F] on the setting [C] sun. _ _ _ _ _
They _ massacred the buffalo kitty corner from the bank. _
_ [Dm] _ Taxis run across my feet [C] and my eyes have turned to blanks, and [G] my little box [Bb] _ [F] at the top [C] of the stairs, _ _ _
with [G] my Indian rug [Bb] _ [F] and a pipe [C] to share. _ _ _ _ _

In [G] the morning _ [Bb] on [F] the fields [C] of green, _ _ _ _ in [G] the homeland _ [Bb] _ [F] we've never [C] _ seen. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And maybe Marlon Brando _ will be there by the fire, _ [Dm] we'll sit and talk about Hollywood and [C] the good things there for hire.
Like [G] the Astrodome _ [Bb] and [F] the first [C] TV. _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] Marlon _ Brando, [Bb] _ _ [F]
Pocahontas and [C] me. _ _ _ _ _ _
