Key: FF | Capo: 0fr |  Left-Handed 

    


   F          C                G
My father married a pure Cherokee
      E7                    Am
My mother's people were ashamed of me
 F           C            G       E7
The Indians said I was white by law
      Am         Am7           F
The white man always called me "Indian Squaw"
Chorus:
 Am                  Dm
Half-breed, that's all I ever heard
 Am                 Dm
Half-breed, how I learned to hate the word
 Am              Dm
Half-breed, she's no good they warned
   F                Am             F         Am
Both sides were against me since the day I was born
  F             C            G
We never settled, went from town to town
       E7                           Am
When you're not welcome you don't hang around
  F         C              G         E7
The other children always laughed at me
    Am         Am7              F
"Give her a feather, she's a Cherokee"
Chorus:
   F            C            G
We weren't accepted  and I felt ashamed
      E7                         Am
Nineteen I left them, tell me who's to blame
 F          C               G            E7
My life since then has been from man to man
   Am           Am7           F
But I can't run away from what I am
