Dakota Lullaby Tom Peterson(Chords)

	        
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
