[Intro] C Cno5 Cadd9 lowC Cadd9 Cno5 C [Verse 1] Aurora borealis, the icy sky at night

F                           C
Paddles cut the water, in a long and hurried flight

         G7       Am      F         C              G7      Am     F     C     Cno5  Cadd9  Cno5  C
From the white man to the fields of green, and the homeland we've never seen

[Verse 2] They killed us in our tepee, they cut our women down

     F                            C
They might have left some babies, cryin' on the ground

        G7        Am       F      C             G7        Am       F       C    Cno5  Cadd9  Cno5  C
But the firesticks and the wagons came, and the night falls on the setting sun

[Verse 3] They massacred the buffalo, kitty corner from the bank

    F                                C
The taxis run across my feet, and my eyes have turned to blanks

      G7        Am      F          C               G7        Am     F       C
In my little box at the top of the stairs, with my Indian rug and a pipe to share

[Break] Cno5 Cadd9 lowC Cadd9 Cno5 C [Verse 4] I wish a was a trapper, I would give a thousand pelts

   F                         C
To sleep with Pocahontas, to find out how she felt

       G7     Am      F         C             G7      Am     F     C     Cno5  Cadd9  Cno5  C
In the mornin' on the fields of green, in the homeland we've never seen

[Verse 5] And maybe Marlon Brando, will be there by the fire

      F                                  C
We'll sit and talk of Hollywood, and the good things there for hire

        G7       Am       F     C             G7    Am    F          C
And the Astrodome and the first tepee, Marlon Brando, Pocahontas and me

           G7    Am    F          C   Cno5  Cadd9  lowC  Cadd9  Cno5  C
Yea Marlon Brando, Pocahontas and me
