C                 G
Catch me this morning
Em
My head is undone
C          G
Curse my eyes
Em
And cut out my tongue

C              G
The hunger of man
Em
For blood and the gun
C          G
A pox on you
Em
And a pox on your sons

C                G      Em
Is this how the west was won?

C               G
Sons and daughters
Em
With no light to follow
C                 G
Where rivers ran deep

Em
All now is shallow

C                   G
From the valley of tears
Em
To the mountain of sorrow
C                G
No turning the tide
Em
No past in tomorrow

C                G       Em
Is this how the west was won?

C                     G
You piss down their backs
Em
And tell them it's rain
C                      G
But they've seen your faces
Em
They know who to blame

C                   G
You burn all the books
Em
And change all the names
C                   G
But the spirit lives on
Em
It won't go away

C                G        Em
Is this how the west was won?

C                  G
Do I have enough years
Em
To understand if I can
C                   G
Why another should bury
Em
Your language and land?

C           G
Cold the heart
Em
And savage the hand
C                 G
That takes from another
Em
What he can't understand

C                G        Em
Is this how the west was won?
