Intro: D 

                                               G 
His mama was a Cherokee princess, or so it was said 
        A                                              D 
And his daddy was a Seminole rebel with a price on his head 
                                                          G 
And the other kids teased him, but I never did see him to cry 
               A                                                         D  G  D 
Man, there was some kind of righteous in the steel of his gun-metal eyes 



N.C.         G                  A 
Run with the wolf, fly like the dove 
         D            G 
Mother below, Father above 
              Em                 A 
Weep with the earth, sing to the sky 
       C             G         D 
In the steel of your gun-metal eyes 


                                                                   G 
Well, he grew up in the washes and the rushes and the rain and the wind 
        A                                                     D 
And the creatures of the forest and fields were his only real friends 
                                                                   G 
And the lily of the valley and the nettle of the plains taught him well 
        A                                                                  D  G  D 
And the new moon shone on him as he wandered through the gully and the dell 


 
N.C.         G                  A 
Run with the wolf, fly like the dove 
         D            G 
Mother below, Father above 
              Em                 A 
Weep with the earth, sing to the sky 
       C             G         D 
In the steel of your gun-metal eyes
