Am
Great spirit, I have had it
Em
Bring me back to the nomadic
F
Way of weaving through damage
C                E
Mindful stay mindful

Am
Great spirit for my sisters
Em
Let me be a flowing river
F
Flood the banks the rocks that bind her
C         E
Carry Ill carry

Am               Em
Great, great spirit.. Oh oh oh oh
Am               Em
Great, great spirit

Am
Great spirit for my brother
Em
Let me be a mountain under
F
Which he climbs to discover 
C                      E 
His process now that's progress

Am
Great spirit all that hinders
Em
Tie reminders to my fingers
F
I must speak with you more 
C      E
often  Mmmm

Am               Em
Great, great spirit...Oh oh oh oh
Am               Em   
Great, great spirit

In every single situation

Great spirit take me instead

Guide me down the road of red

Tun-kash - A-la 4x

Am
Great spirit the stone collapse
Em
Nothing but the earth will last
F
And i'll be singing sweetly to the 
C        E
Darkness Now hark this

Am
Great spirit on my tongue
Em

F
When everyone will sing, all life is 
C       E
Sacred, While i'm waiting

Am
Great spirit my fist is up
Em
Bringing the power to the people, your reflection of us
F
Some of your people cant hear it, The cries of the earth
C                                 E
Some of your people can't feel it, The way that it hurts

       Am                   
And it hurts great spirit
       Em
And it moves great spirit
               F
Interconnected in the wreckage of a 
                    C        E
Paradigm on its way out, way out...

            Am
Speaking of spiritual lyrical testimony
                    Em
The spirit that did resist, Weaving around false prophecies
                F
Spirit directed and selective, With the message I bring
          C                           E
While the ship slowly sinks, Ive been directed to sing

Am
I'm like a wrecking ball, Breaking down the walls of the past
Em
A minimalist living on bliss,With the last of my cash
                F
You're gonna be justified, With how you treated the land
                C
You're gonna be by my side 
                 E
When I stand and demand

Am
A change
        Em      Am
