Strum
D-DU-UDU
So good at doing what you don't do
Just trying to protect yourself And other fools like you
So well practiced in your deceit
Behind the high walls of stupidity, your endless conceit
Behind the locked doors, the sleeping dog you beat
I hope I see the day she satisfies her teeth
Give back to the native the treaty land
what you preach you preachfor others, why don't you practise that
first hand
And I just don't understand this world of mine
I must be out of step or out of my mind
And will the profits of destruction forever make your eyes blind
Do you bow to the corporations 'cause they pay their bills on time
God bless Elijah with the feather in his hand
Stop stealing the Indian land
Stop stealing the Indian land
Stop Stealing the Indian land.
Photograph - Blue Rodeo
Started out so simple
Everything so innocent and plain
She was in a doorway
And I was walking nowhere down the main
She whispered something softly
And stepped into the light
Can you help me out she said
I'm a little lost tonight
One day love just hits you with a flash
Lights go off around you like some photograph
She said her bags were stolen
All they left her was the camera on her arm
She told me she was new in town
Only two weeks off the farm
Why did I believe her
Heaven only knows
She looked into my eyes
And my resolution goes
One day love just hits you with a flash
Leaves you staring blindly like some photograph
Pictures of two fools laughing at the world
Smiling as only good luck does
Truth is you're not even looking at me girl
All the time I was falling
You kept on stalling
Sizing up how big a fool I was
Woke up in the morning
I don't think that I had been asleep too long
The room was dark and empty
I could see that all my clothes and money were gone
