D              
 Aurora Borealis
                    
 The icy sky at night
 Em                   
 Paddles cut the water
      D                      
 In a long and hurried flight
          A         C       G         D    
 From the white man  to the fields of green
         A        C      G     D   
 and the homeland  we've never seen
        
[Verse 2]               
D                        
 They killed us in our teepees

 And they cut our women down
      Em
 They might have left some babies
D
 Cryin' on the ground
         A         C         G      D   
 But the firesticks  and the wagons come
         A          C        G       D   
 And the night falls  on the settin' sun
 
[Verse 3] 
D                              
 They massacred the buffalo

 Kitty corner from the bank
     Em
 The taxis run across my feet
        D
 And my eyes have turned to blanks
       A         C        G          D   
 In my little box  at the top of the stairs
         A         C       G       D   
 With my indian rug  and a pipe to share

[Break]
 D 
 D       
 Em                    D  
 A       C       G     D         
 
 [Verse 4]
D                     
 I wish I was a trapper

 I would give a thousand pelts
    Em
 To sleep with Pocahontas
     D
 and find out how she felt
        A      C       G         D   
 In the mornin' on the fields of green
        A        C      G     D   
 In the homeland  we've never seen
 
[Verse 5]
D                      
 And maybe Marlon Brando

 Will be there by the fire
       Em
 We'll sit and talk of Hollywood
         D
 And the good things there for hire
         A         C        G        D   
 And the Astrodome  and the first teepee
        A      C     G          D   
 Marlon Brando,  Pocahontas and me
        A      C     G          D   
 Marlon Brando,  Pocahontas and me
     A     C    G      D
 Pocahontas
