[Verse 1]
Em    G                                   Em
  You think you own whatever land you land  on
    G                                       Bm
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
    Em           Bm                C       G/B
But I know ev'ry rock and tree and creature
           Am      Bm/D       Em      D
Has a life,  has a spirit, has  a name
    G                             Em
You think the only people who are people
        G                        Bm
Are the people who look and think  like you
   Em                Bm             Am/C    G/B
But  if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
            Am           D             G          G/F#
You'll learn  things you never knew you never knew

[Chorus]
         Em                             Bm        Cadd9
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
   Em                            Bm
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
        C                               Bm7      Em
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
        Cmaj7              G/B           E7sus4
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
        Am                 Cmaj7/D       G
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?

[Verse 2]
Em Bm/D D/C
D     G                  D                Em  Cadd9
 Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
     G                                 Bm   B7/D#
Come taste the sunsweet berries of the earth
     Em              Bm/D        Cmaj7    G/B
Come roll in all the riches all around you
        Am
And for once,
      G/D    D           Em     D/F#
never wonder what they're  worth
    G                 D               Em   Cadd9
The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
    G                         Bm
The heron and the otter are my  friends
    Em           Bm/D     Cmaj7      G/B
And we're all connected to     each other
     Am           D           G
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends

[Chorus]
G/F#     Em                             Bm        Cadd9
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
   Em                           Bm
Or let the eagle tell you there he's been
        C                          Bm7             Em
Can you sing with all the voices of   the mountain?
        Am                 G/B           E7sus4
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
        Am                 Cmaj7/D       G
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?

[Bridge]
Bm7 D/C      Bm
How high does  the sycamore grow?
   Fmaj7
If you  cut it down
            Cmaj7/D
Then you'll never know

[Chorus]
Bm7        Em                             Bm        Cadd9
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
    Em                         Bm
For whether we are white or copperskinned
           C                    F#m7b5
We need to sing with all the voices of
Bm7           Em
  the mountain
        Am                 G/B      E7sus4
Need to paint with all the colors of      the wind

[Outro]
        Am
You can own the earth and still
           Bm7            Cadd9
All you'll own is earth until  
        Em         Bm7     Cmaj7  Cmaj7/D G
You can paint with all the colors of      the wind
Em Cadd9 Em D Cmaj7 Cmaj7/D G
