Once so very long ago, out on the great western plains,
A
There were great buffalo.
Em / / Dm / /
Em Dm
Once there were great herds that thundered over the land
Cm Em
Roaming across the Prairie leaving hoof prints in the sand.
Em Dm
This was before the white man came from across the sea
Cm / / Em / /
Em Dm
The white man came across this land with a gun and a knife in his hand
Cm Em
Slaughtering them everywhere, leaving them to rot in the sand.
Em Dm
Did you see the river of red, when they killed them all dead?
Cm* Em / /
Oh no so long ago.

A G A G
One night deep with in my dreams, I spied the spirit of a warring brave,
A Em / / Dm / /
And he said to me .
Em Dm*
Once we watched over the herds taking from them for our needs
Cm* Em
Together living on the plains, time slowly proceed.
Em Dm
But did you see the river of red, running across the plains.
Cm Em
Now they’ve shot all down so few of them remain.
Em Dm
Now that they cut them all down there’re coming after me,
Cm Em
But first they killed my wife and the rest of my family.

Chant…
Em Dm
We’ll I run or will I fight , there is no choice in my sight
Cm Em
Here I’ll stand and here I’ll fight and this is where I’ll die.
Em Dm
See the pony soldiers up ahead, I ride to meet the fight,
Cm Em
With a hunger in my soul, I die in the night.
(Softly)
Em Dm
Did you see the river of red, when they killed us all dead,
Cm Em
Oh no so long ago
( play loud)
Em Dm

Oh no no no no no so long ago.
