Native Son
guitar tabs lyrics
Intro: Asus2 F#m7 E Dsus2
Verse 1:
A F#m7
I've seen many moons through these wrinkled eyes
E
The years have made me old, but they made me wise
D
Now the white man lives where our rivers run
A F#m7
For now better days have passed
E
We walk the streets of broken glass
D
Our people vanished as snow before the summer sun
Bridge:
E F#m Dsus2
Like dogs we were driven from this place
E
Such injustice time will not erase
F#m Bm7
All these changes cannot be undone
Verse 2:
A F#m7
When you feel the anger inside of you
E
Hold your head high, let your aim be true
D
Though your heart beats like a drum
A - F#m7 - E - D
My native son
Verse 3:
A F#m7
Once there was a time, my little one,
E
Before the wagons - before the soldiers' guns
D
When this land was ours as far as the eagle flies
Verse 4:
A F#m7
No white flag - no broken truce
E
With few words one can speak the truth;
D
I don't hear it, time won't heal it now
Bridge:
E F#m Dsus2
With each new day that comes to pass
E
Will the great spirit free us all at last?
F#m Bm7
He said we were the chosen ones
Verse 5:
A F#m7
For all we had there's nothing left
E
We won't forgive - we can't forget
D
You know that your day will come
A - F#m7 - E - D
My native son
Solo:(same chords as verse)
BRIDGE:
E F#m Dsus2
With each new day that comes to pass
E
Will the great spirit free us all at last?
F#m Bm7
What has happened can never been undone
Verse 6:
A F#m7
When I was young - not yet a man
E
The sun rose and set upon our land
D
We were the chosen ones
A - F#m7 - E - D
My native son
Repeat A - F#m7 - E - D until end
