Verse 1:
GmYou A#think you own whatever land you lGmand on
the A#earth is just a dead thing can cDmlaim
but Gmi know every Dmrock and tree and D#creature A#
has a Cmlife, has a Fspirit, has a Gmname.
You A#think the only people who are pGmeople
are the A#people who look and think like yDmou
but Gmif you walk the Dmfootsteps of a D#stranger A#
you'll learn Cmthings you never D#knew you never kA#new.
Chorus:
DmHave you Gmever heard the wolf cry to the Dmblue corn D#moon
Or Gmasked the grinning bobcat why he Dmgrinned?
Can you D#sing with all the vFoices of the mDmountain? Gm
Can you D#paint with all the cA#olors of the wiGmnd?
Can you Cmpaint with all the D#colors of the wA#ind?
Verse 2:
Come A#run the hidden pFine trails of the fGmorest
Come A#taste the sun sweet berries of the eDmarth
Come Gmroll in all the Friches all aD#round you A#
And for Cmonce never A#wonder wFhat they're wGmorth. F
The A#rainstorm and the rFiver are my bGmrothers
The A#heron and the otter are my fDmriends
And Gmwe are all conFnected to each D#other A#
In a Cmcircle in a D#hoop that neveA#r ends.
Chorus:
DmHave you Gmever heard the wolf cry to the Dmblue corn D#moon
or Gmlet the eagle tell you where he's Dmbeen?
Can you D#sing with all the vFoices of the mDmountain? Gm
Can you D#paint with all the cA#olors of the wiGmnd?
Can you Cmpaint with all the D#colors of the wA#ind?
A#How hD#igh does the siDmckamore grGmow?
If you Cmcut it down then you'll Fnever know.
DmAnd you'll Gmnever hear the wolf cry to the Dmblue corn D#moon
For Gmwhether we are white or copper Dmskinned
We need to D#sing with all the vFoices of the mDmountains Gm
We need to Cmpaint with all the Dmcolors of the Gmwind.
You Cm7can own the Earth and still
All you'll Dmown is earth untD#il
You can Gmpaint with Dmall the D#maj7colors oFf the wA#ind
