Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]What are the open plains but
Land to roam and cultivate
Reciprocate, trade and share?
To give and to take to respect
the indian way
I will no longer cry for
Where it's past is gone
Like a memory that floats in the air
The song of the eagle [G]feather
Climbing in the wind
[F]on [Am]a hot summer day
On a hot summer [G]day
[Am]I've seen

[Verse 2]
eyes that were crying [Em]sadly
[Am]Fists ready for [G]the blown
[Em]Seen turbu[Am]lent skyes above me
Buterflies in [G]the snow
[Em]Saw

[Verse 3]
[G]a world in a mask and a [Em]costume
In a [Am]jingle of leaders to [F]blame
Seen the [G]power in hands
of the [Em]wrong man
Who will [Am]always be just [F]the same
[Am]Seen

[Verse 4]
boys cryes in little borders
Risk a life to wash a dish
Seen money?? is the answer
Is that your only wish?

[Verse 5]
[G]Saw a???? so [Em]hopeful
Seen a [Am]man who?? his l[F]ife
As a [G]woman not able to [Em]choose
[G]From a str[Am]eet that I need
to sur[F]vive[Am]

[Verse 6]
Truth nothing but the truth
What you're come up today?
[E]What you're come up today?
The things you say
When you give and you take
When you take and you
[Am]take and you take

[Verse 7]
[Am]Truth nothing but the truth
In tha [E]name of nature
The choices we've made is it only me?
Is it only you?
Are we only [Am]living for today?

[Verse 8]
Maybe [Am]today will be my
[E]day before it's over
I'll make [Am]a change
Maybe today will be my
[E]day before it's over
I'll have my [Am]say

Of the [Am]means that you're taking [G]hard

Float [Am]away, far away, out of [F]sight
[Am]And the moun[G]tain we still must c[Em]limb

[Am]Truth nothing but the truth
In tha [E]name of nature
The choices we've made is it only me?
