Half Breed Cher
[Verse]
[F]My father [C]married a pure [G]Cherokee
[G]My mother's [E7]people were [Am]ashamed of me
[F]The Indians [C]said that I was [G]white by [E7]law
[Am]The white man [Am7]always called me [F]"Indian Squaw"
[Cborus]
[Am]Half-breed, that's [Dm]all I ever heard
[Am]Half-breed, how I [Dm]learned to hate the word
[Am]Half-breed, she's no [Dm]good they warned
[F]Both sides were [Am]against me since the [Dm7]day I was [Am]born
[Verse]
[F]We never [C]settled, went from [G]town to town
[G]When you're not [E7]welcome you don't [Am]hang around
[F]The other [C]children always [G]laughed at [E7]me
[Am]"Give her a [Am7]feather, she's a [F]Cherokee"
[Cborus]
[Am]Half-breed, that's [Dm]all I ever heard
[Am]Half-breed, how I [Dm]learned to hate the word
[Am]Half-breed, she's no [Dm]good they warned
[F]Both sides were [Am]against me since the [Dm7]day I was [Am]born
[Verse]
[F]We weren't ac[C]cepted and I [G]felt ashamed
[G]Nineteen I [E7]left them, tell me [Am]who's to blame
[F]My life since [C]then has been from [G]man to [E7]man
[Am]But I can't [Am7]run away from what I [F]am
[Cborus]
[Am]Half-breed, that's [Dm]all I ever heard
[Am]Half-breed, how I [Dm]learned to hate the word
[Am]Half-breed, she's no [Dm]good they warned
[F]Both sides were [Am]against me since the [Dm7]day I was [Am]born
