[G]
Jesse lit us up and [Cm] passed the bottle one more time.
We used to smoke and drink a [Gm] lot back then.
Thunder shook the heavens [Cm] and the lightning danced the sky.
Like I ain't seen since can't [G] remember when.
The Oklahoma kid laid [Cm] dying in a woman's womb.
Just another Indian [G] biting dust.
[Gm]
The clouds grew dark and promised but [Cm] they didn't rain a thing.
The government ain't something you [G] can trust.
[C] [G] We picked a gig and tossed at [Cm] the Kings ballroom that night.
The Oklahoma kid was dead [G] and gone.
The rain still hadn't come but [Cm] the clouds still blacked the sky.
That's when I took the time to write [Gm] this song about the wrong.
[Bb] Oh the Oklahoma [C] wind [F] slides across the burning [Bb] sand.
Over double [C] crosses mother [G] nature made.
[Bb] And nothing's [C] ever come [F] as far as I'm [Bb] concerned.
From the dead [C] tomorrows planted [G] yesterday.
[Gm]
[G]
The black man took his chance and [Cm] got his foot hung in the door.
He sure as hell is gonna [Gm] have his day.
The red man speaks his piece to gain [Cm] his long lost dignity.
And Washington just turns the [G] other way.
[Gm] Yes he spends his days [Cm] local his New Mexico.
Every night he drinks his [Gm] filibooze.
With Ruidosos running [Cm] he lays his money down.
Winning just enough to [G] lose and lose.
[Bb] The Oklahoma [C] wind [F] slides across the burning [Bb] sand.
Over double [C] crosses mother [G] nature made.
[Bb] And nothing's [C] ever come [F] as far as I'm [Bb] concerned.
From the dead [C] tomorrows planted [G] yesterday.
