[Intro]
Bm A G F#m Bm
[Verse 1]
Bm A Bm
Come listen while I tell you the story
A F#m
Of a battle that happened years ago
Bm A Bm
Where brave men fought and died for their people
A Bm
Where the waters of the Little Big Horn flow
[Verse 2]
A Bm
For many years the Indian fought the white man
A F#m
I guess they knew the end was growin' near
Bm A Bm
But this time they would show the whites forever
A Bm
What it meant to be an Indian warrior
[Verse 3]
A Bm
That mornin' General Custer came a marchin'
A F#m
From the south with his 600 men
Bm A Bm
He planned to catch the Indians a sleepin'
A Bm
He didn't know he wouldn't live to fight again
[Chorus]
A Bm Cm
Hoka Hey, Lakotas, it's a good day to die
[Verse 4]
Cm A# Cm
Sittin' Bull made medicine on the mountain
A# G
While Crazy Horse got ready for the fight
Cm A# Cm
Some 2,000 braves, Sioux and Cheyenne
A# Cm
Prepared for their battle with the whites
[Verse 5]
A# Cm
The scouts for General Custer tried to warn him
A# G
To wait for soldiers comin' any day
Cm A# Cm
But Custer didn't want to share the glory
A# Cm
He thought the Indians might just get away
[Verse 6]
A# Cm
At noon Custer gave his final order
A# G
And the're beneath the blue Montana sky
Cm A# Cm
From outa nowhere came the hordes of Redmen
A# Cm
And as they charged he heard their battle cry
[Chorus]
A# Cm C#m
Hoka Hey, Lakotas, it's a good day to die
[Verse 7]
C#m B C#m
The quiet of the day had now been shattered
B G#
The air filled with arrows, smoke and lead
C#m B C#m
The bloody battle lasted just one hour
B C#m
Custer and his soldiers all lay dead
[Verse 8]
B C#m
Now the wind it still blows across the prairie
B G#
The seasons they come and they go
C#m B C#m
But this the Redman's Day of Glory
B C#m
We will all remember ever more
B C#m
Yes we recall that famous day of glory
B C#m
The Battle of the Little Big Horn
[Chorus]
C#m B C#m
Hoka Hey, Lakotas, it's a good day to die
[Outro]
B A G#m C#m
