They lived in peace not long ago
F#m C#
a mighty Indian tribe
D D F#m E A
but the winds of change have made them realize
Bm E
that the promises were lies
F#m C#
The white man's greed in search of gold
F#m C#
made the nation bleed
D D F#m E A
They had lost their faith and now they had to learn
Bm C#m D E
there was no place to return nowhere they could turn
F#m E A D F#m E F#m D A E
Cherokee marching on the trail of tears

verse 2:
They were driven hard across the plains
And walked for many moons
'Cause the winds of change
Had made them realize that the promises were lies
So much to bear, all that pain
Left them in despair.
