[Verse]
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]
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]
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
[Instrumental]

D
Em                    D
A       C       G     D
[Verse]
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]
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
