No more G beautiful moons may we Em spend on our lands
In the C north the scarlet D councils talks of G war D And the G long knives have massacred the Em tribe and burned
corn
We're not C welcome in our D homeland any G more
There will be a C trail D of G tears
There will be a C trail D of Em pain Em/g And Jackson will C have the Missisis G ippi and the C twenty
dollar G bill
But for C us the trail is D all that will re G main
No more G songs of the hunters on the Em buffalo plain
No more C smoke from sacred D fires touch these G hills D And the G numbers of the people will grow Em fewer every mile
And our C children will not D learn the Great Spirits G way
There will be a C trail D of G tears
There will be a C trail D of Em pain Em/g And Jackson will C have the Missis G sippi and the C twenty
dollar G bill
But for C us the trail is D all that will re G main
On the G streets of Rapid City on the Em road to Wounded Knee
There is C whiskey for for D getting every G thing D But the G old ones say there may be time from Em learning from
each other
The C way that it had D once been meant to G be
There is still a C trail D of G tears
There is still a C trail D of Em pain Em/g And Jackson has C got the Missis G sippi and the C twenty
dollar G bill
But for C us the trail of D tears re G main
Jackson has C got the Missis G sippi and the C twenty dollar
G bill
But how C long will the D trail of tears re G main
