[Verse 1]
   G                              C              G
From the Indian reservation to the governmental school
             C            G                   D7            G
Well they're goin' to educate me to the white men's Golden Rule
    G                                    C            G
And I am learning very quickly for I've learned to be ashamed
      C                    G                  D7             G
And I come when they call "Billy" though I've got an Indian name


[Chorus]
               G                                  C
And there are Drums beyond the Mountain There are Drums that you
         G
cannnot hear
          C                G                    D7
There are Drums beyond the Mountain and they're getting mighty
  G
near


[Verse 2]
 G                                                    C
And when they thought that they had changed me cut my hair to
            G
meet their needs
           C                 G              D7                 G
Will they think I'm white or Indian quarter Blood or just half breed
G                                   C                   G
Let me tell you Mr teacher when you say you'll make me right
                 C       G                  D7           G
In five hundred years of fighting not one Indian turned white


[Chorus]
                G                                  C
And there are Drums beyond the Mountain There are Drums that you
         G
cannnot hear
          C                G                    D7
There are Drums beyond the Mountain and they're getting mighty
  G
near


[Verse 3]
G                                             C
Well you thought that I knew nothing when you brought me here to
         G
your school
        C           G             D7           G
Just another empty Indian just America's first fool
G                                       C                   G
But now I can tell you stories that are burnt and dried and old
           C               G                 D7                G
But in the shadow of their telling walks the Thunder proud and bold


[Chorus]
               G                                  C
And there are Drums beyond the Mountain There are Drums that you
         G
cannnot hear
          C                G                      D7
There are Drums beyond the Mountain and they're getting mighty
  G
near


[Verse 4]
G                              C                G
Long Pine and Sequoia Handsome Lake and Sitting Bull
        C         G               D7                G
There's Magnus Colorado with his sleeves so red and full
G                                   C             G
Crazy Horse the legend those who bit off custer's Soul
         C                 G                D7       G
They are dead yet they are living with the great Geronimo


[Chorus]
               G                                  C
And there are Drums beyond the Mountain There are Drums that you
         G
cannnot hear
          C                G                    D7
There are Drums beyond the Mountain and they're getting mighty
  G
near


[Verse 5]
G                                                C                G
Well you may teach me this land's hist'ry but we taught it to you first
              C                    G                  D7
We broke your Hearts and bent your journeys broken treaties left us
G
cursed
G                                   C                  G
Even now you have to cheat us even though you think us tame
           C           G                 D7                 G
In our losing we found proudness in your winning you found shame


[Chorus]
               G                                  C
And there are Drums beyond the Mountain There are Drums that you
         G
cannnot hear
          C                G                    D7
There are Drums beyond the Mountain and they're getting mighty
  G
