[Verse 1]
Am C Am
You think you own whatever land you land on
C Em
the earth is just a dead thing can claim
Am Em F C
but i know every rock and tree and creature
Dm G Am
has a life, has a spirit, has a name.
C Am
You think the only people who are people
C Em
are the people who look and think like you
Am Em F C
but if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
Dm F C
you'll learn things you never knew you never knew.
[Chorus]
Em Am Em F
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Am Em
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
F G Em Am
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
F C Am
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Dm F C
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
[Verse 2]
C G Am
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
C Em
Come taste the sun sweet berries of the earth
Am G F C
Come roll in all the riches all around you
Dm C G Am G
And for once never wonder what they're worth.
C G Am
The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
C Em
The heron and the otter are my friends
Am G F C
And we are all connected to each other
Dm F C
In a circle in a hoop that never ends.
[Chorus]
Em Am Em F
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Am Em
or let the eagle tell you where he's been?
F G Em Am
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
F C Am
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Dm F C
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
C F Em Am
How high does the sickamore grow?
Dm G
If you cut it down then you'll never know.
[Verse]
Em 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 Em Am
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountains
Dm Em Am
We need to paint with all the colors of the wind.
[Outro]
Dm7
You can own the Earth and still
Em F
All you'll own is earth until
Am Em Fmaj7 G C
You can paint with all the colors of the wind.
