F                            Am
Give it time and wonder why do what we can laugh and we cry 
C                                                      G
and we sleep in your dust because we've seen this all before.    
F                                   Am
Culture fades with tears and grace leaving us stunned hollow with shame we
     C                                 G
have seen this all, seen this all before.
F                                   Am
Many tribes of a modern kind, doing brand new work, same spirit by side,
         C                                      G
joining hearts and hand and ancestral twine, ancestral twine.
F                                   Am
Many tribes of a modern kind, doing brand new work, same spirit by side,
         C                                       G
joining hearts and hand and ancestral twine, ancestral twine.
    F        Am    C          G
Slowly it fades…….. Slowly we fade
    F        Am          C        G
Slowly it faaaaades…….. Slowly we fade
F                   Am
Emanayo yo yo yo…….. Emanayo yo yo yo
C                   G
Emanayo yo yo yo…... Emanayo yo yo yo

Spirit bird she creaks and groans she knows she has, seen this all before she
                    G
has, seen this all before she has
F                                       Am                            C
Spirit bird she creaks and groans she knows she has, seen this all before she

F                                  Am                            C
spineless man that greedy man that heartless man deceiving man government hand

taking blood and land taking blood and land and still they can but your
F                                      Am                           C
dreaming and your warrior spirit lives on and it is so so so strong in the
