NATIVES (CHRISTY MOORE)
(starting in C)
G D G
For all of our languages we can't communicate
D Em
For all of our native tongues we're all natives here
Bm Em G
Sons of their fathers' dream the same dream
D Em
The sound of forbidden words becomes a scream
C D
Voices in anger, victims of history
Em D C D G
Plundered and set aside, grown fat on swallowed pride.
G D G
With promises of paradise and gifts of beads and knives
D Em
Missionaries and pioneers are soldiers in disguise
Bm Em G
Saviours and conquerors they make us wait
D Em
The fishers of men they wave their truth like bait
C D
With the touch of a stranger's hand innocence turns to shame
Em D C D G
The spirit that dwelt within now sleeps out in the rain.
G D G
For all of our languages we can't communicate
D Em
For all of our native tongues we're all natives here
Bm Em G
The scars of the past are slow to disappear
D Em
The cries of the dead are always in our ears
C D
Only the very safe can talk about wrong or right
Em D C D G
Of those who are forced to choose some will choose to fight
G D G
For all of our languages we can't communicate
