A                            E                             D                                              F#m
Here's a story I've been told, About a child of 12 year old, Breathing life to young trees falling
A                                    E                                         D                                     F#m
Before the barbed wire on the plain, before the white man ever came, She must've saved 10 000 souls_
A                                 E                                           D
She was the keeper of the young, the ones whose lives have just begun, the ones to die
               F#m
Their song unsung.


[Chorus]
A           E      D     F#m        A           E     D     F#m       A
Ooo    Ooo     Ooo   ch   igeas,_____ Ooo    Ooo     Ooo   ch   igeas

A                               E                                              D
The story tells of how she cried, The day the wind blew high the fire, Left her burned but still
F#m         A                                     E                            D
Undompted Across the lake lived the magic team who set a task for malicete? To find the special girl
       F#m    A                                 E                                      D
He wanted, when all the village girls had tried. To win his heart to be his bride, Oochi would not be
F#m
Denied


[Chorus]
A           E      D     F#m        A           E     D     F#m
Ooo    Ooo     Ooo   ch   igeas,_____ Ooo    Ooo     Ooo   ch   igeas


A                            E                             D                                              F#m      A
Here's a story I've been told, About a child of 12 years old, Breathing life to young trees falling______


A                      E                                    D                                        F#m
Not as simple as it seemed, She had to see the one unseen, She had to cast away the lies____
A                              E                                      D                                          F#m
With courage Oochigeas tried, Forgot the pain forgot the cries, and thus she kept the dream alive___



[Chorus]

A           E      D     F#m        A           E     D     F#m
Ooo    Ooo     Ooo   ch   igeas,_____ Ooo    Ooo     Ooo   ch   igeas
A           E      D     F#m        A           E     D     F#m
Ooo    Ooo     Ooo   ch   igeas,_____ Ooo    Ooo     Ooo   ch   igeas
