Indian reservation

A7 - 2 - / / D / / / 2 / / / 3 
                             G 
They took the whole Cherokee nation 
                    D 
Put us on this reservation 
(for rest of verse, repeat pattern of above 2 lines): 
Took away our ways of life 
The tomahawk and the Bowie knife 
Took away our native tongue 
And taught their English to our young 
And all the beads we made by hand 
Are nowadays made in Japan 
 
Chorus: 
 
G  (break)       / D (break)      / 
 Cherokee people,   Cherokee tribe 
G  (break)        / A7            D 
 So proud to live,    so proud to die 
 
Verse 2: 
They took the whole Indian nation 
Locked us on this reservation 
Though I wear a shirt and tie 
I'm still a red man deep inside 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Verse 3: 
But maybe someday when they've learned 
The Cherokee nation will return 
(vocal crescendo): 
D 
Will return, will return, will return, will return!
