#1.
Am Dm
They took the whole Cherokee Nation,
Am
And put us on this reservation.
Am Dm
Took away our way of life.
Am
The tomahawk and the bow and knife.
Am Dm
They took away our native tongue,
Am
taught their English to our young.
Am Dm
And all the beads we made by hand,
E Am
are nowadays made in Japan.
CHORUS:
Dm Am
Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe..
Dm E E7
So proud to live, so proud to die..
#2.
Am Dm
They took the whole Indian Nation,
E Am
locked us on this reservation.
Am Dm
Built us houses by the score,
E Am
Don't need tepees anymore.
Am Dm
Though I wear a shirt and tie,
E Am
I'm still a red man deep inside.
CHORUS:
Dm Am
Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe..
Dm E E7
So proud to live, so proud to die..
#3.
Am Dm
Oh, they changed our ways of old..
E Am
they want to change out heart and soul.
Am Dm
And maybe someday when they've learned,
E Am
the Cherokee Nation will return.
CHORUS:
Dm Am
Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe..
Dm E E7
So proud to live, so proud to die..
#4.
E7 Am Dm
Oh, they changed our ways of old..
E Am
they want to change out heart and soul.
Am Dm
And maybe someday when they've learned,
E Am
the Cherokee Nation will return.
Am
Will return..will return..will return..will return.(Fade)
