C#
Oh, your
golden lights of America,
B
F#
Joseph sought your prairies
C#
and your buffalo.
And the humming of the rails
B
down through Kansas,
F#
They brought Joseph in from
C#
Baltimore.
G#m
The Cavalry, the Indians,
F#
C#
and an old dan were his only friends.
B
Then the old dan died and
the Indians' plight
F#
Made the Cavalry young Joe's
C#
enemy.

Joseph took a badge for America

To defend you from your fantasies.

Joseph wore that badge

across the Kansas

Prairies to save the railroads.
G#m
But the heroes that we made,
well, they were
F#
C#
Ruthless soldiers who'd kill for gold.

With a broken heart for the frontier plains,

That old tin badge is tarnished now,

You know it was just
C#
a young man's dream.
D#m

And old man's tales are hard

Don't believe in your American Dream.

F#
the buffalo and old Joe Mason,
C#
They died from memory.
