[Verse]
 
Em                          Bm
I've been thinking about my childhood
A                               Em
And what your books they taught me
Em                                 Bm
If things don't work out like they ought to
A                          Em
It wouldn't matter much to me
     Em
Yes, Look at the land
                    Bm
And see all the destruction
A                       Em
In a land that once was mine
Em
Well, do you go forward?
        Bm
I don't think so
A                             Em
We'll have it all back in due time
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C          D          G D/F#  Em
My heart belongs in an Indian world
C              D           Bm
A place that I can call my home
C         D          G D/F#      Em
I've been livin' in a white man's world
C      D             Em
Taught nothing of my own

[Verse 2]
 
Em                          Bm
We used to soar high as the eagles
A               Em
Far as we could fly
Em                                   Bm
Then you came along lookin' for your targets
A                        D
Now the eagles they have died
    Em
You killed our fathers
  Bm
Raped our mothers
A                             Em
Killed our sons and daughters too
   Wm
We break your laws
         Bm
We don't mean to
A                         Em
We can't help but what we are
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
C          D          G D/F#  Em
My heart belongs in an Indian world
C              D           Bm
A place that I can call my home
C         D          G D/F#      Em
I've been livin' in a white man's world
C      D
Taught nothing

              I've been thinking about my childhood
And what your books they taught me
If things don't work out like they ought to
It wouldn't matter much to me

Yes, Look at the land
And see all the destruction
In a land that once was mine
Well, do you go forward?
I don't think so
We'll have it all back in due time

My heart belongs in an Indian world
A place that I can call my home
I've been livin' in a white man's world
Taught nothing of my own

We used to soar high as the eagles
Far as we could fly
Then you came along lookin' for your targets
Now the eagles they have died

You killed our fathers
Raped our mothers
Killed our sons and daughters too
We break your laws
We don't mean to
We can't help but what we are

My heart belongs in an Indian world
A place that I can call my home
I've been livin' in a white man's world
Taught nothing
