Dakota Lullaby Tom Peterson

A         D          E
Hear that black crow calling
      A
as he comes home in the spring
         E           D            E
Hear the last of the sad coyote's cry
         D
Hear the ghost of the plain
            A        D
Sing of the buffalo again
          Bm           D         A
And fall asleep to a Dakota Lullaby

    D              E
The wind sings the names
       A
Of the ones who have returned
        E            D                   E
To this holy land on which their fathers toiled
       D
If you fall down on your knees
         A               D
Put your ear down to the earth

You might hear their spirits singing in the soil


A         D          E
Hear that black crow calling
      A
as he comes home in the spring
         E           D            E
Hear the last of the sad coyote's cry
         D
Hear the ghost of the plain
            A        D
Sing of the buffalo again
          Bm           D         A
And fall asleep to a Dakota Lullaby


D             E
Time rolls forever
         A
Like the lazy grey Missouri
E         D                      E
Stars up above the dusty prairie shine
          D
There's a million sleeping braves
              A                  D
They're gonna rise up from their graves
             Bm         D                A
And sing the songs that hold no trace of time


A         D          E
Hear that black crow calling
      A
as he comes home in the spring
         E           D            E
Hear the last of the sad coyote's cry
         D
Hear the ghost of the plain
            A        D
Sing of the buffalo again
          Bm           D         A
And fall asleep to a Dakota Lullaby
