[Verse 1]
[Am]They lived in peace,
[E]not long ago
[Am]A mighty Indian trib[E]e[G]
[F]But the winds of cha[G]nge
[Am]Made them [G]realize,[C]
that the [Dm]promises were [G]lies

[Verse 2]
[Am]The white man's greed,
[E]in search of gold
[Am]Made the nation blee[E]d[G]
[F]They lost the[G]ir faith
[Am]And now [G]they had to le[C]arn
There was [Dm]no place to re[Em]turn
[F]Nowhere they could [G]turn

[Verse 3]
[Am]They were driven hard,
[E]across the plains
[Am]And walked for many moon[E]s[G]
[F]Cause the winds of cha[G]nge,
[Am]Had made[G] them realize,[C]
that the [Dm]promises [G]were lies

[Verse 4]
[Am]So much to bear,
[E]all that pain
[Am]Left them in despa[E]ir[G]
[F]They lost the[G]ir faith
[Am]And now [G]they had to le[C]arn
There was [Dm]no place to re[Em]turn
[F]Nowhere they could [G]turn
