Verse:
GCGC So good at doing what you don't do GEmCD Just trying to protect yourself And other fools like you GCGC So well practiced in your deceit GEmCD Behind the high walls of stupidity, your endless conceit
Behind the locked doors, the sleeping dog you beat I hope I see the day she satisfies her teeth Give back to the native the treaty land what you preach you preachfor others, why don't you practise that first hand
Bridge:
EmGAmC And I just don't understand this world of mine EmGAmBmCD I must be out of step or out of my mind
And will the profits of destruction forever make your eyes blind Do you bow to the corporations 'cause they pay their bills on time God bless Elijah with the feather in his hand Stop stealing the Indian land Stop stealing the Indian land Stop Stealing the Indian land.

Key: A (Capo on 2nd fret. Chords shown for key of G.)
Intro: G
GD Started out so simple EmCG Everything so innocent and plain GD She was in a doorway EmCG And I was walking nowhere down the main
D She whispered something softly CG And stepped into the light D Can you help me out she said CG I'm a little lost tonight GDCG One day love just hits you with a flash GDCG Lights go off around you like some photograph
She said her bags were stolen All they left her was the camera on her arm She told me she was new in town Only two weeks off the farm Why did I believe her Heaven only knows She looked into my eyes And my resolution goes One day love just hits you with a flash Leaves you staring blindly like some photograph
Bridge:
EmD Pictures of two fools laughing at the world CG Smiling as only good luck does EmD Truth is you're not even looking at me girl Am All the time I was falling C You kept on stalling AmD Sizing up how big a fool I was
Woke up in the morning I don't think that I had been asleep too long The room was dark and empty I could see that all my clothes and money were gone
I've run out of excuses And people I can blame If she ever asked me too I'd do it all again One day love just hits you with a flash Leaves you staring blindly like some photograph
