                       CHEROKEE   by EUROPE







intro:

         Em D G C Em D Em C G D Em





Em                    B

  They lived in peace   not long ago

Em                B

  a mighty Indian tribe

C                    C Em     D             G

  but the winds of change   have made them realize

              Am          D

  that the promises were lies

Em                      B

  The white man's greed   in search of gold

Em                  B

  made the nation bleed

C                       C  Em       D               G

  They had lost their faith    and now they had to learn

            Am             Bm    C                  D

  there was no place to return   nowhere they could turn



           Em D G C               Em        D      Em C G D

  Cherokee        marching on the trail of tears

           Em D G C               Em        D      Em C G D     Em

  Cherokee        marching on the trail of tears









verse 2:



They were driven hard across the plains

And walked for many moons

'Cause the winds of change

Had made them realize that the promises were lies



So much to bear, all that pain

Left them in despair.
