Apache Tears Johnny Cash
[C]Hoof prints and [G]foot prints, [C]deep ruts the wagons [F]made
The [C]victor and the [G]loser came by [C]here [G]
no [C]head stones but [G]these bones bring [C]Mascalero death [F]moans
[C]see the smooth black [F]nuggets by the [G]thousands laying [C]here
[C]petrified but [F]justified are [G]these Apache [C]tears
[C]Dead grass, [G]dry roots, [C]hunger crying [F]in the night
[C]Ghost of broken [G]hearts and laws are [C]here [G]
And [C]who saw the [G]young squaw they [C]judged by their [F]whiskey law
[C]Tortured till she [G]died of pain and [C]fear
Where the [C]soldiers lay her [F]back are the [G]black Apache [C]tears
The [C]young men, the [G]old men, the [C]guilty and the [F]innocent
[C]Bled red blood and [G]chilled alike with [C]fear [G]
The [C]red men, the [G]white men, [C]no fight ever [F]took this land
[C]So don't raise the [G]dust when you pass [C]here
They're [C]sleeping and in my [F]keeping are [G]these Apache [C]tears
