Intro: Asus2 F#m7 E Dsus2

Verse 1:
A                                                                        F#m7
I've seen many moons through these wrinkled eyes
                                                                                 E
The years have made me old, but they made me wise
                                                           D
Now the white man lives where our rivers run
A                                           F#m7
For now better days have passed
                                                  E
We walk the streets of broken glass
                                       D
Our people vanished as snow before the summer sun

Bridge:
E                               F#m                 Dsus2
Like dogs we were driven from this place
                                             E
Such injustice time will not erase
                 F#m                        Bm7
All these changes cannot be undone

Verse 2:
A                                                   F#m7
When you feel the anger inside of you
                                                           E
Hold your head high, let your aim be true
                                              D
Though your heart beats like a drum
A - F#m7 - E - D
My native son

Verse 3:
A                                           F#m7
Once there was a time, my little one,
                                                             E
Before the wagons - before the soldiers' guns
                                                             D
When this land was ours as far as the eagle flies

Verse 4:
A                                               F#m7
No white flag - no broken truce
                                                             E    
With few words one can speak the truth;
                                                    D
I don't hear it, time won't heal it now

Bridge:
E                            F#m                    Dsus2
With each new day that comes to pass
                                              E
Will the great spirit free us all at last?
               F#m                             Bm7
He said we were the chosen ones

Verse 5:
A                                         F#m7
For all we had there's nothing left
                                                E
We won't forgive - we can't forget
                                                 D
You know that your day will come
A - F#m7 - E - D
My native son

Solo:

BRIDGE:
E                          F#m                   Dsus2
With each new day that comes to pass
                                             E
Will the great spirit free us all at last?
                             F#m                        Bm7
What has happened can never been undone

Verse 6:
A                                                 F#m7
When I was young - not yet a man
                                                       E
The sun rose and set upon our land
                       D
We were the chosen ones
A - F#m7 - E - D
My native son
