Capo 3
VERSE
C Am
You think you own what ever land you land on
C Am
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
F C Dm7
But I know every rock and tree and creature
F G Am
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
C Am
You think the only people who are people
C Am
Are the people who look and think like you
F C Dm7
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
F G C
You'll learn things you never knew, you never knew
CHORUS
Am F
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Am Em
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grins
F G C Am
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain
Dm7 Em
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
F G C
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
VERSE
C Am
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
C Am
Come taste the sun sweet berries of the earth
F C Dm7
Come roll in all the riches all around you
Am G
And for once never wonder what they're worth
C Am
The rain storm and the river are my brothers
C Am
The herron and the otter are my friends
F C Dm7
And we are all connected to each other
F G C
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends
F
How high does the Sickamore grow?
Bb7 G G7
if you cut it down then you'll never know
CHORUS
Am Em F
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Am Em
For whether we are white or copper skinned
F G C
Can we sing with all the voices of the mountains
Dm7 Em
Can we paint with all the colors of the wind
F G
You can own the earth and still
C Am
All you'll own is earth until
Dm7 G C
You can paint with all the colors of the wind
