Verse
Fm
In the back of the heart of blue earth county
Db Ab
Many, many years ago
D#
I stood in the cold next to my mother
Db Fm
And 38 men blindfold
Fm Db Ab
As the natives took their place, singing their death song
D#
The prison Chaplain called their names
Db Fm
But he got one of their names wrong
[Chorus]
Db
I----I've been
Ab
Fi----ighting
D#
With this notion that the world does
Fm
G good man well
Db
I see it all around me
Ab
G man does hateful things
D#
And he still walking around, you see
Fm
While the good one's gone
[Verse 2]
Fm
Some say that there was no mistake
Db Ab
Some say they wanted that man to be hung
D#
For falling in love with a white woman
Db Fm
And caring for her infant son
Fm
When he was first captured, she cried;
Db Ab
"Don't take him, you don't know!"
D#
If not for him, my bones will be bleach'en on the prairie
Db Ab
My children, with little crow
[Chorus]
Db
I----I've been
Ab
Fi----ighting
D#
With this notion that the world does
Fm
G good man well
Db
I see it all around me
Ab
G man does hateful things
D#
And he still walking around, you see
Fm
While the good one's gone
[Verse 3]
Fm
As the moment came and the ropes all placed
Db Ab
And the drums they quieted the crowd
D#
The men wailed and danced on a trap door gallows
Db Fm
And yelled each other's names so loud
Fm
And when they heard their name they yelled;
Db Ab
"I'm here, I'm here!"
D#
And they yelled out their fellow men's name
Fm
For the heavens to hear
[Bridge]
Db Ab
And the clergyman spoke on
Db Ab Fm
About Christ and how he di---ied
D#
And the axe was lifted hi---igh
[Instrumental]
Fm Db Ab
D# Db Fm
2x
[Chorus]
Db
I----I've been
Ab
Fi----ighting
D#
With this notion that the world does
Fm
G good man well
Db
I see it all around me
Ab
G man does hateful things
D#
And he still walking around, you see
Fm
While the good one's gone
