Verse 1:

                      D
Were you there at the creek
                       F#m
That is called Wounded Knee
         A            D
Were you there at the creek
          F#m
There but unseen
                Em7  G
In the 7th Calvary
                      D
Were you there at the creek

Verse 2:

                      D
Were you there on the wind
                  F#m
That hammered the plains
         A            D
Were you there on the wind
                 F#m
To scatter their names
              Em7  G
I'll ask you again
                      D
Were you there on the wind

Chorus:

            G6
It makes me weep
            D
It makes me weep
            G6
It makes me weep
    Em7           D
Now how could you be

Verse 3:
                      D
Were you there in the crowd
                         F#m
When the first shot rang out
         A            D
Were you there in the crowd
       F#m
Moving about
             Em7   G
Black powder cloud
                      D
Were you there in the crowd

Verse 4:
                      D
Were you there by the Sioux
                       F#m
With the white Flag of Truce
         A            D
Were you there by the Sioux
                       F#m
'Cause the flag was no use
                Em7   G
The bullets all flew
                      D
Were you there by the Sioux

Chorus:

            G6
It makes me weep
            D
It makes me weep
            G6
It makes me weep
    Em7           D
Now how could you be

Verse 5:

              D
If you choose sides
                 F#m
I know where you were
     A             D
With soldiers that ride
                F#m
So stalwart and sure
         Em7   G
Not into pride
          D
Into massacre

Chorus:

            G6
It makes me weep
            D
It makes me weep
            G6
It makes me weep
    Em7           D
Now how could you be
