Broken Arrow

• G

G                 Bm           Em          C    
The lights turned on and the curtain fell down, 
Am                        D  
And when it was over it felt like a dream,  
Am                                D 
They stood at the stage door and begged for a scream,  
G               G/F#          Em        
The agents had paid for the black limousine  
      C                     D 
That waited outside in the rain.  
G                  Gsus 
Did you see them, 
G       C           
did you see them?  
F Fmaj7 F6 
Dm               G7 
Did you see them in the river?  
Bb                 Dm      Em  F  Em  
They were there to wave to you.  
Dm                       G7 
Could you tell that the empty quivered,  
Bb              Dm          Em   
Brown skinned Indian on the banks 
            F           Em  
That were crowded and narrow,  
F            G 
Held a broken arrow?

G          Bm         Em     C 
Eighteen years of American dream,  
Am                            D 
He saw that his brother had sworn on the wall.  
    Am                      D 
He hung up his eyelids and ran down the hall,  
       G        G/F#       Em             
His mother had told him a trip was a fall,  
      C                     D 
And don't mention babies at all.  
G                Gsus 
Did you see him,

G                  Bm           Em      C 
The streets were lined for the wedding parade,  
Am                                      D 
The Queen wore the white gloves, the county of song,  
Am                              D 
The black covered caisson her horses had drawn  
G              G/F#          Em              
Protected her King from the sun rays of dawn.  
       C                         D 
They married for peace and were gone. 
         G          Gsus 
Did you see them,
