[Intro]
| Am | Am | Am | Am |
[Verse 1]
Am Fmaj7
The thunder of the hooves of Indian ponies
Am Fmaj7
Wild with running, beautiful as light
Am Fmaj7
Flash into my dreams along the prairie
G Em7 Dm7
The hero Sioux, the spirits of the night
Am Fmaj7
With buffalo who used to roam the mountains
Am Fmaj7
Through the canyons, through the wind-blown grass
C Fmaj7
Hooves that beat past swiftly running rivers
G Em7 Dm7
And sounds of centuries like breaking glass
[Verse 2]
Am Fmaj7
Shot from trains and shot from painted horses
Am Fmaj7
Shot down running in their murdered fear
Am Fmaj7
Gone before the quarter of the century
G Em7 Dm7
Leaving nothing but the sound of tears
Am Fmaj7
Starving in their trails of blood and sorrow
Am Fmaj7
Ancient creatures innocent of crime
C Fmaj7
Manifest in destiny they flounder
G Em7 Dm7 Fmaj7 G
Like the wandering footsteps of the blind
[Chorus]
C Fmaj7
Sundown
Am Fmaj7
Sunrise
C Fmaj7
Sundown
Am Fmaj7
Sunrise
[Verse 3]
Am Fmaj7
All the sainted tribes and missionaries
Am Fmaj7
All the wagon trains of yearning hearts
Am Fmaj7
Testify to madness and to bloodshed
G Em7 Dm7
Among the buffalo as time departs
Am Fmaj7
Alas for murdering the dreams of warriors
Am Fmaj7
Women, children sleep in innocence
C Fmaj7
Fires raged across the burning deserts
G Em7 Dm7 Fmaj7 G
Let the tears of history commence
[Chorus]
C Fmaj7
Sundown
Am Fmaj7
Sunrise
C Fmaj7
Sundown
Am Fmaj7
Sunrise
[Verse 4]
Am Fmaj7
May the pioneers plant in their gardens
Am Fmaj7
Among the bones of dreamers by the creek
Am Fmaj7
Where they somehow found the peace of silence
G Em7 Dm7
With no maddening secrets they could keep
Am Fmaj7
The thunder of the hooves of Indian ponies
Am Fmaj7
Wild with running, beautiful as light
C Fmaj7
Flash into my dreams along the prairie
G Em7 Dm7
The hero Sioux, Comanches of the night
G Em7 Dm7
Arapahoe, the Nez Perce of the night
G Em7 Dm7 Em7 Fmaj7 G
The Cherokee, spirits of the night
[Chorus]
C Fmaj7
Sundown
Am Fmaj7
Sunrise
C Fmaj7
Sundown
Am Fmaj7
Sunrise
[Outro]
