Verse 1
B
Oh, your
golden lights of America,
A
E
Joseph sought your prairies
B
and your buffalo.
And the humming of the rails
A
down through Kansas,
E
They brought Joseph in from
B
Baltimore.
F#m
The Cavalry, the Indians,
E
B
and an old dan were his only friends.
A
Then the old dan died and
the Indians' plight
E
Made the Cavalry young Joe's
B
enemy.

A
Joseph took a badge for America
E

To defend you from your fantasies.
F#m
Joseph wore that badge
E
across the Kansas
B
Prairies to save the railroads.
F#m
But the heroes that we made,
well, they were
E
B
Ruthless soldiers who'd kill for gold.

Verse 3
B
With a broken heart for the frontier plains,
A

Joseph sat a- rocking in his

front- porch swing.
That old tin badge is tarnished now,

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

And old man's tales are hard
to reach when you

Don't believe in your American Dream.
F#m
The Indians,

E
the buffalo and old Joe Mason,
B
They died from memory.
