Broken Arrow

Buffalo Springfield

 GBmEmC
 The lights turned on and the curtain fell down,
 AmD
 And when it was over it felt like a dream,
 AmD
 They stood at the stage door and begged for a scream,
 GG/F#Em
 The agents had paid for the black limousine
 CD
That waited outside in the rain.
Chorus:
 GGsus
 Did you see them,   
 GC
 did you see them?
 FFmaj7F6
 DmG7
 Did you see them in the river?
 BbDmEmFEm
 They were there to wave to you.    
 DmG7
 Could you tell that the empty quivered,
 BbDmEm
 Brown skinned Indian on the banks
 FEm
That were crowded and narrow,
 FG
 Held a broken arrow?

--Intermission #1--
 GBmEmC
 Eighteen years of American dream,
 AmD
 He saw that his brother had sworn on the wall.
 AmD
He hung up his eyelids and ran down the hall,
 GG/F#Em
His mother had told him a trip was a fall,
 CD
And don't mention babies at all.
Chorus:
 GGsus
 Did you see him,  
 GC
 did you see him?

 FFmaj7F6FFmaj7F6
 DmG7
 Did you see him in the river?
 BbDmEmFEm
 He was there to wave to you.    
 DmG7
 Could you tell that the empty quivered,
 BbDmEm
 Brown skinned Indian on the banks
 FEm
That were crowded and narrow,
 FG
 Held a broken arrow?

--Intermission #2--
 GBmEmC
 The streets were lined for the wedding parade,
 AmD
 The Queen wore the white gloves, the county of song,
 AmD
 The black covered caisson her horses had drawn
 GG/F#Em
 Protected her King from the sun rays of dawn.
 CD
They married for peace and were gone.
Chorus:
 GGsus
Did you see them,    
 GC
 did you see them?

 FFmaj7F6FFmaj7F6
 DmG7
 Did you see them in the river?
 BbDmEmFEm
 They were there to wave to you.       
 DmG7
 Could you tell that the empty quivered,
 BbDmEm
 Brown skinned Indian on the banks
 FEm
That were crowded and narrow,
 FG
 Held a broken arrow?
