     But the land was already claimed by a people when the cowboy came and  when the soldiers came
N.C.
The story of the American Indian is in a lot of ways a story of tragedy
N.C.
Like that day at Wounded Knee, South Dakota

[Verse 1]
A                                   D
 Big Foot was an Indian chief of the Minneconjou band
E7                           D                 A
 A band of Minneconjou Sioux from South Dakota land
A                          D
 Big Foot said to Custer "Stay away from Crazy Horse"
    E7                                    D                A
But Custer crossed into Sioux land and he never came back across
     A                            D
Then Big Foot led his people to a place called Wounded Knee
         E7                                 D        A
And they found themselves surrounded by the 7th Cavalry


[Chorus]
D          A         E7                A
 Big chief Big Foot, rise up from your bed
D            A                    D             A
 Minneconjou babies cry for their mothers lying dead


[Verse 2]
A                                      D
Big Foot was down with a fever when he reached Wounded Knee
        E7                               D        A
And his people all were prisoners of the 7th Cavalry
A                                   D
Two hundred women and children and another hundred men
E7                                   D               A
 Raised up a white flag of peace but peace did not begin
   A                      D
An accidental gunshot and Big Foot was first to die
    E7                                     D               A
And over the noise of the rifles you could hear the babies cry


[Chorus]
D          A              E7                  A
 Big chief Big Foot, it's good that you can't see
  D              A                   D        A
Revenge is being wrought by Custer's 7th Cavalry


[Verse 3]
      A                                 D
Then smoke hung over the canyon on that cold December day
E7                        D                    A
 All was death and dying around where Big Foot lay
A                                  D
 Farther on up the canyon some had tried to run and hide
E7                                   D                  A
But death showed no favorites, women, men, and children died
A                                     D
 One side called it a "massacre", the other a "victory"
        E7                           D              A
But the white flag is still waving today at Wounded Knee


[Chorus]
D          A              E7          A
 Big chief Big Foot, your Minneconjou band
   D           A                D            A
Is more than remembered here in South Dakota land
D          A              E7          A
 Big chief Big Foot, your Minneconjou band
   D           A                D            A
Is more than remembered here in South Dakota land
