Em D Em When the morning breaks and the sunlight warms my soul Em D In the East the Eagle flies, and the Red Tail proudly soars Em G G/F# Em I'm on my way~ to the place of the spirit one G D add2 Grandfather hear me now, I am on fire Em G Let the sundance guide my feet to your desire D Give me visions for my eyes Am D add2 And words like gold that shimmer in the sun Em D Em Hyi-ah, hyi-ah, hyi-ah
When the sun goes down and it grows too dark to see I look within to the Shaman's mystery I'm on my way~ to die and live, again Grandmother Earth I cry, give me rest I take my place with the woman in the West Show me the Raven and the Bear The way of herbs and the black obsidian Hyi-ah, hyi-ah, hyi-ah
Turn toward the South, like water I will run In innocence and trust the Moonchild's song is sung I'm on my way~ to the place of the sacred plants My emotions and my will at their command Where the Turtle's voice is heard upon the land Where the wise Coyote prowls The Rattlesnake will call me to the dance Hyi-ah, hyi-ah, hyi-ah
In the deepest night when the stars watch over me Old Woman of the North my mind seeks clarity I'm on my way~ to the place of the Northern winds Let the Thunder and the Lightning carry me Lay my thoughts to rest and send me into sleep With the Hawk and the Buffalo My dreams white crystal magic medicine Hyi-ah, hyi-ah, hyi-ah
