Am
On the limbs and branches of the trees
N.C.
It humbled me to know that I walked thru

So many people’s prayers and I wrote this song
                     Am
On the way down it’s called
N.C                                       Am
Walkin through the prayers from Bear Butte


[Verse 1]
Am
   Blackbirds flying, through the darkness
                            Em
Shooting stars, out in space
       Am            D        Am
Unseen spirits, like phantoms hover
            Dm   Em7               Am
Like cherub bells    from the holy place
Am
Where some have prayed, prayers for freedom
                         Em
Some beg mercy for their pain

[Verse 2]
E           Am7           D7         Am7
  Some have shared life’s dreams and visions
               Dm7  Em7                      Am
When they came down     they weren’t the same
     G  F              Am
Step by step, I see my shadow
        F    C               Em7   E7
My true soul,  walks with me there
          Am   G              F   D    F
I shed my tears, I climb this mountain
        Am      E             A       Em Am7
As I go walking,  through the prayers

[Verse 3]
         Am
Majestic form, atop earth's mesa
                               E
The rocks bear witness, to the truth
           Am        Dm      Am
As I kneel down, and lift my spirit
               Dm  Em         Am
To the holy wonder,   at Bear Beat
