Fiume Sand Creek

             C                                                     F                     C 
Si son presi il nostro cuore sotto una coperta scura
                                                                     F                 C 
sotto una luna morta piccola dormivamo senza paura
                     G                                                   F                         C 
fu un generale di vent'anni occhi turchini e giacca uguale
                     G                               F                                 C 
fu un generale di vent'anni figlio d'un temporale.
                                                                         G                           C 
                c'è un dollaro d'argento sul fondo del Sand Creek.
             C                                                     F                     C 
I nostri guerrieri troppo lontani sulla pista del bisonte
                                                                   F                 C 
e quella musica distante diventò sempre più forte
                 G                                                   F                         C 
chiusi gli occhi per tre volte mi ritrovai ancora lì
                 G                               F                                 C 
chiesi a mio nonno è solo un sogno mio nonno disse sì.
                                                                       G                           C 
                a volte i pesci cantano sul fondo del Sand Creek.

             C                                                     F                     C 
Sognai talmente forte che mi uscì il sangue dal naso
                                                                     F                 C 
il lampo in un orecchio nell'altro il paradiso
                     G                     F                             C 
le lacrime più piccole le lacrime più grosse
                   G                               F                                 C 
quando l'albero della neve fiorì di stelle rosse
                                                                   G                           C 
                ora i bambini dormono nel letto del Sand Creek.

             C                                                     F                     C 
Quando il sole alzò la testa tra le spalle della notte
                                                                 F                 C 
c'erano solo cani e fumo e tende capovolte
                   G                                                   F                         C 
tirai una freccia in cielo per farlo respirare
                   G                               F                                 C 
tirai una freccia al vento per farlo sanguinare
                                                                         G                           C 
                la terza freccia cercala sul fondo del Sand Creek.

             C                                                     F                     C 
Si son presi il nostro cuore sotto una coperta scura
                                                                     F                 C 
sotto una luna morta piccola dormivamo senza paura
                     G                                                   F                         C 
fu un generale di vent'anni occhi turchini e giacca uguale
                     G                               F                                 C 
fu un generale di vent'anni figlio d'un temporale.
                                                                   G                           C 
                ora i bambini dormono nel letto del Sand Creek.
