[Colors of the Wind]

    C                              Am
You think you own whatever land you land on
    C                               Em
The Earth is just a dead thing you can claim
    Am                             F
But I know every rock and tree and creature
      Dm          G          Am
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name

 

    C                            Am
You think the only people who are people
        C                          Em
Are the people who look and think like you
    Am                             F
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
             Dm               G          C
You'll learn things you never knew, you never knew
 

         Am                             Em        F
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
   Am                              Em
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grins
        F                G            Em       Am
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains
        F                               G
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
        F                 G            C
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind

[The Bare Necessities]

             C
Look for the bare necessities
    F
The simple bare necessities
   C                               G
Forget about your worries and your strife
           C
I mean the bare necessities
    F
Old Mother Nature's recipes
     C              G             C
That brings the bare necessities of life


           G                 C
Wherever I wander, wherever I roam
              G               C
I couldn't be fonder of my big home
             F             G
The bees are buzzin' in the tree
       C             A7
Making honey just for me
     D7
When you look under the rocks and plants
        G
And take a glance at the fancy ants
     F          G
Then maybe try a few
         Dm             G                C
The bare necessities of life will come to you
G                     C
They'll come to you!...
G                     C
They'll come to you!...

[The Circle of Life]

         G                 Am7
From the day we arrive on the planet
    D                     G
And blinking, step into the sun
        Em7                  Am7
There's more to see than can ever be seen
        F                G    D
More to do than can ever be done
        G                   Am7
There's far too much to take in here
        D                    G
More to find than can ever be found
        Em
But the sun rolling high
            Am7
Through the sapphire sky
                F                   D
Keeps great and small on the endless round
                   G
It's the circle of life
                Dm
And it moves us all
                    C
Through despair and hope
                  D
Through faith and love
                 G  G7
Till we find our place
                C      Cm
On the path unwinding yeah
       G     D
In the circle
          C     G
The circle of life
