[Intro]
Em Em [Verse]
Em Dsus2 Em All is not it seems to be on the outside Dsus2 Em Sometimes what appears to be is a show Dsus2 Em What shows in the face is only a mirror Dsus2 Em We all have some better places to go [Instrumental]

Em Dsus2 Em [Verse]
Em Dsus2 We don't know just what we have
Em
’til we've lost it Dsus2 Until that time comes and
Em
know that it's gone Dsus2 So hard to say things that
Em
we should have uttered long ago Dsus2 Tear myself away from
Em
thoughts in my head [Instrumental]

E5 G5 C5 D5 G5 D5 E5 G5 A5 C5 D5 x2 [Verse]
E5 D5 G5 D5 The people worshiping the sun E5 And all the children point
G5 D5 G5 D5
up to the sky E5 They see the eagle
D5 G5 D5 E5
as it floats on the wind And they follow with their
G5 D5 G5 D5
spirits high [Instrumental]
E5 G5 C5 D5 G5 D5 E5 G5 A5 C5 D5 [Verse]
E5 D5 G5 D5 Buffalo roam on the plain E5 We walk into the flames
G5 D5 G5 D5
but dance for rain E5 The hallowed dead in
D5 G5 D5 E5
sacred ground and the elders And we wash away their
G5 D5 G5 D5
sins for them [Instrumental]
E5 G5 C5 D5 G5 D5 E5 G5 A5 C5 D5 [Pre-Chorus]
C D Feel the spirits of the old ones
Em
standing proud upon their race D And the testament to ancestors,
C
that are never to retrace D Burn the flame of innocence,
Em
as they ride into the sun D Thinking now of our forefathers
C
that are lying dead upon D Holy ground and sacred earth now Em Revisit stolen youth [Chorus]
Em G D Am G Em G Lost in a lost world D G D Em G Buried on sacred ground D Am G Em G Lost in a lost world D G D Em G D G D Lying on sacred ground [Instrumental]

C D Em D [Outro]
C D Will we ever heal our old wounds Em Like forever darkness worn D Fighting for their lives again C So come on now don’t be afraid D This is where destiny lies Em Just to let us breathe again D Put upon this earth to wander C And to walk, forever lost D With the ashes of our enemies Em To live among our ghosts D Of our past fear nothing life is
but a better path to joy C D Nowhere to go nowhere to run Em Our whole nation overrun D Itself existence under threat C And soon will be none of us left D Remember names of all our dead now Em In enemies that fled D Reaching for our sky forever free C A sadness that is proud D As the clouds all drift away now Em Until we meet again
