D                     A               G 
I was freezing on the banks of Platte River 
 
          D                   A                   G 
And I was thinking of General Custer and his last stand 
 
      D                          A               G              D 
And I bowed my head, what has HE done, he had my freedom on the run 
 
      D                 A        G 
I was thinking how they shot Mr. Lincoln 
 
      D                  A                 G 
And I remembered all the mountains that he made 
 
       D                           A                   G              D 
And I bowed my head what have THEY done They've got my freedom on the run 
 
D            A             G 
The river is wide and it's wicked 
 
D                         A                 G 
But it ends where there's peace for one and all. 
 
 
      D               A             G 
I was thinking of the measure of my weakness 
 
        D      A                  G 
Like so many I condemn and do not know 
 
      D                          A                  G              D 
And I bowed my head what have WE done We've got our freedom on the run 
 
    D        A             G 
The river is wide and it's wicked 
 
       D                  A                 G 
But it ends where there's peace for one and all.  (ooohh Fade ...)
