Am

[Verse 1]
            Em        Am
In Monument Valley we ride
              Em     Am      G
Myself and my Navajo guide
    F                         E7
I'm moved by the majesty that lives here in this place
           Am            Em            Am
His native home, the dry desert of his race

[Verse]
                   Em             Am
I don't know these mesas or these lands
                          Em                  Am    G
Like the fields my mother ploughed beside her dad
      F                         E7
And I hold every story that her father told to me
  Am       Em              Am
As dear as myths of the Anasazi

[Verse]
               Em                Am
We ride on and sing our peoples' songs
                       Em              Am     G
From roots that run as deep as they do long
      F                          E7
And although I was born here and raised in this nation
             Am            Em        B
The blood is strong in the first generation

[Verse]
   Am          Em           Am
My grandmother swept a dirt floor
              Em         Am
As the Navajo did here before
   F                     E7
Kayenta and Kerry may be wide water apart
           Am          Em               Am
But we're alike in the deep core of the heart

[Verse]
                  Em              Am
I've seen the sun set at The Sun's Eye
                    Em        Am
Left an echo in The Hogan nearby
  F                         E7
A song of my people that my mother gave to me
            Am       Em        Am
In my tribe music is blood memory
Am       Em        F
Music is blood memory
