A D E
Hear that black crow calling
A
as he comes home in the spring
E D E
Hear the last of the sad coyote's cry
D
Hear the ghost of the plain
A D
Sing of the buffalo again
Bm D A
And fall asleep to a Dakota Lullaby
D E
The wind sings the names
A
Of the ones who have returned
E D E
To this holy land on which their fathers toiled
D
If you fall down on your knees
A D
Put your ear down to the earth
Bm D A
You might hear their spirits singing in the soil
A D E
Hear that black crow calling
A
as he comes home in the spring
E D E
Hear the last of the sad coyote's cry
D
Hear the ghost of the plain
A D
Sing of the buffalo again
Bm D A
And fall asleep to a Dakota Lullaby
D E
Time rolls forever
A
Like the lazy grey Missouri
E D E
Stars up above the dusty prairie shine
D
There's a million sleeping braves
A D
They're gonna rise up from their graves
Bm D A
And sing the songs that hold no trace of time
A D E
Hear that black crow calling
A
as he comes home in the spring
E D E
Hear the last of the sad coyote's cry
D
Hear the ghost of the plain
A D
Sing of the buffalo again
Bm D A
And fall asleep to a Dakota Lullaby

key step up
Half
key step up
Half
key step down
Full
