[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Em Am
In Monument Valley we ride
Em Am G
Myself and my Navajo guide
F E7
I'm moved by the majesty that lives here in this place
Am Em Am
His native home, the dry desert of his race
[Verse]
Em Am
I don't know these mesas or these lands
Em Am G
Like the fields my mother ploughed beside her dad
F E7
And I hold every story that her father told to me
Am Em Am
As dear as myths of the Anasazi
[Verse]
Em Am
We ride on and sing our peoples' songs
Em Am G
From roots that run as deep as they do long
F E7
And although I was born here and raised in this nation
Am Em B
The blood is strong in the first generation
[Instrumental]
C Em7 F Em7 Am

[Verse]
Am Em Am
My grandmother swept a dirt floor
Em Am
As the Navajo did here before
F E7
Kayenta and Kerry may be wide water apart
Am Em Am
But we're alike in the deep core of the heart
[Verse]
Em Am
I've seen the sun set at The Sun's Eye
Em Am
Left an echo in The Hogan nearby
F E7
A song of my people that my mother gave to me
Am Em Am
In my tribe music is blood memory
Am Em F
Music is blood memory
