[Verse 1]
[G]A y[Eb]oung I[D]ndi[G]an
[C]mother with [G]anxious eye[D]s,
Sat [G]by a [C]cradle [G]neath sullen skies.
Her warrior [C]hunter had not [G]returned,
[D]But bra[G]vely to [C]her bab[G]e she turned.
[C]High flies the goose,
my little [G]Pa [C]poose,
The bright [G]apple [Em]falls from the [Am]bough.[D]
The trem[C]bling [Eb]leaf knows
[G]the north wind's a thi[C]ef,
But [G]you will [C]sleep some[G]how, somehow,
But you will [C]sleep some[G]how.
The frost [D]of the wind chilled
the [G]empty [D]rack,
Where once [G]it hung meat
[C]and corn by [G]the sack.
With fear in her heart
[C]she turned [G]to the [D]child,
And as wolves [G]closed in [C]she
sang an[G]d she smiled.
[C]High flies the goose, my [G]little papoose,
[C]The bri[G]ght apple fal[Em]ls
from the [Am]bough.[D]
The [C]trembling [Eb]leaf [G]knows
the north wind's a [C]thief,
But [G]you will [C]sleep some[G]how, somehow,
But you will [C]sleep [G]somehow.
Then [C]a knife she drew
[G]from her tattered [D]shawl
[G]Watched the brown [C]-eyed child
clutch [G]a sheepskin dog
The wolves would make
[C]certain he didn't [G]know[D]
If he ever [G]returned,
[C]they would lie neath [G]the snow[D][G]
[C]High flies the goose, my [G]little [C]Papoose
The [G]bright apple [Em]falls from the [Am]bough
[D]The [C]trembling [Eb]leaf knows
[G]the north wind's a [C]thief,
But [G]you will [C]sleep [G]somehow, somehow,
But you will [C]sleep some[G]how.
Then faint on the [C]wind a [G]hi -yi [D]-o h,
The [G]clip -clop of [C]Burroughs,
[G]patient and slow,
Her warrior [C]hunter at [G]last had returned
[D]There was foo[G]d, there were fur[C]s,
to the [G]babe she turned
[C]High flies the goose, my [G]little [C]papoose
The [G]bright apple [Em]falls from the [Am]bough[D]
The [C]trembling [Eb]leaf knows
the [G]north winds a [C]-thieve
But you [G]will [C]sleep [G]somehow, somehow
[D]But you will sleep [G]somehow
