I've tabed the song in rock chords and I got it like this....
Riff: EE DD, GG CC, EE DD, E C G DD (x2)
Vers. 1
[E]They lived in peace,[B]not long ago
[E]A mighty indian tribe[B]
[BDC]But the winds of change[D],
[E]Made them realize[F#], that the promises[G] were lies[A] [c]
Vers. 2
[E]The white man's greed, [B]in search of gold
[E]Made the nation bleed[B]
[EDC]They lost their faith
[E]And now they hade to learn[F#]
There was no[G] place to return[A]
[C]Nowhere they could [D]turn.
(In the Ref. plays the Riff x2)
REF.
Cherokee marching on the trail of tears.
Vers. 3
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.
Vers. 4
So much to bear, all that pain
Left them in despair
They lost their faith
And now they hade to learn
There was no place to return
Nowhere they could turn.
