INTRO: Em

                                D                 Em
When the morning breaks and the sunlight warms my soul
                                    D
In the East the Eagle flies and the Red-tail proudly soars
          Em
I'm on my way
       G            ~      Em
To the place of the spirit one
     G                          D
Grandfather hear me now I am on fire
        Em                               G
Let the Sundance guide my feet to your desire
        D
Show me visions for my eyes
    Am                                  D
The words like gold that shimmer in the sun


CHORUS:
   Em     D      Em
Hy-ah, hy-ah, hy-ah


                              D                 Em
When the sun goes down and it grows too dark to see
                     D
I look within to the shaman's mysteries
          Em
I'm on my way
   G       ~     Em
To die and live again
     G                          D
Grandmother Earth I cry give me rest
  Em                                  G
I take my place with the woman in the West
            D
Show me the Raven and the Bear
    Am                               D
The way of herbs and the black obsidian


CHORUS:
   Em     D      Em
Hy-ah, hy-ah, hy-ah


                               D            Em
Turn toward the South like the water I will run
                            D
In innocence and trust, the moonchild's song is sung
          Em
I'm on my way
       G            ~      Em
To the place of the sacred plants
    G                               D
My emotions and my will at their command
          Em                               G
Where the Turtle's voice is heard upon the land
          D
Where the wise Coyote prowls
    Am                              D
The Rattlesnake will call me to the dance


CHORUS:
   Em     D      Em
Hy-ah, hy-ah, hy-ah


                         D                Em
In the deepest night the stars watch over me
                           D
Old woman of the North, my mind seeks clarity
          Em
I'm on my way
       G            ~        Em
To the place of the northern winds
        G                               D
Let the thunder and the lightning carry me
       Em                                G
Lay my thoughts to rest and send me into sleep
         D
With the Hawk and the Buffalo
   Am                              D
My dreams white crystal, magic medicine


CHORUS:
   Em     D      Em     D      Em
Hy-ah, hy-ah, hy-ah, hy-ah, hy-ah
