Now That The Buffalo's Gone

(intro)   G D F Em C G D A D

G                          D
    Can you remember the times,
F                              Em
    that you`ve held your head high?
         C                            G
    and told all your friends of your Indian claim,
      D                   G
    proud good lady and proud good man?
          C                           G
    Your great-great-grandfather from Indian blood sprang,
             D         A D
    and you feel in your heart for these ones.

              G                       D
    Oh, it`s written in books and in songs,
          F                         Em
    that we`ve been mistreated and wronged.
           C               G
    Well, over and over I hear the same words,
          D                   G
    from you, good lady, and you, good man.

           C                   G
    Well, listen to me if you care where we stand,
             D             A            D
    and you feel you`re a part of these ones.

            G                      D
    When a war between nations is lost,
         F                        Em
    the loser, we know, pays the cost.
        C                  G
    But even when Germany fell to your hands,
        D                   G
    consider, dear Lady, consider, dear man,
         C                            G
    you left them their pride and you left them their land,
          D            A            D
    and what have you done to these ones?

            G                      D
    Has a change come about Uncle Sam,
        F                        Em
    or are you still taking our lands?
        C                    G
    A treaty forever George Washington signed,
       D                   G
    he did, dear Lady, he did, dear man.
              C                      G
    And the treaty`s being broken by Kinzua Dam,
          D             A            D
    and what will you  do  for these ones?

             G                         D
    Oh, it`s all in the past, you can say,
              F                    Em
    but it`s still going on here today.
         C                       G
    The government now wants the Iroquois land,
         D              G
    that of the Seneca and the Cheyenne.
          C                          G
    It`s here and it`s now you must help us, dear man,
     D                      G
    now that the buffalo`s gone.
