Em G Bm Em C |
Am D | Em
You think you own
whatever land you
land on
The earth is just a
dead thing you can
claim
But I know every
rock and tree and
creature has a
life,
has a spirit, has a
name
Verse 2: G Em
G Bm Em C | Am
D | G
You think the only
people who
are people are the
people who look and

But if you walk the

you never knew you
never knew
[Chorus] Em

the wolf cry to the

Come run the hidden
pine trails of the
forest
Come taste the sun
sweet berries of the
earth
Come roll in all the
riches all around

and for once never
wonder what they're
worth

The rain storm and
the river are my

The heron and the

And we are all
connected to each
other
in a circle in a
hoop that never
ends
