--
[Chorus]
[C]Oh, the wind blows c[G]old
[D]On the trail of the b[Em]uffalo
[C]Oh, the wind blows c[G]old
[D]In the land of the N[Em]avajo
[D]In the land of the Na[Em]vajo

[Verse 1&2]
[G]A hundred miles from nowhere [C]out on the desert sand
[D]One-eyed Jack, the trader, held some torquoise in his h[G]and
[G]By his side sat Running Elk, his l[C]ong-time Indian friend
[D]He vowed that he would stay by Jack until the bitter [G]end

[G]Jack had gambled everything he owned to le[C]ad this wandering life
[D]He might have had a happy home and a tender loving w[G]ife
[G]But his hunger was for trading trapper's f[C]urs for torquoise stone
[D]Anything that the Indians had, Jack wanted for his o[G]wn

[Chorus]
[C]Oh, the wind blows c[G]old
[D]On the trail of the [Em]buffalo
[C]Oh, the wind blows c[G]old
[D]In the land of the N[Em]avajo
[D]In the land of the N[Em]avajo

[Verse 3&4]
[G]Said Jack to Running Elk, I'll gamble a[C]ll my precious stones
[D]Before I leave my body here among these bleaching b[G]ones
[G]But now my[mmmm] time is drawing near and I'm f[C]illed with dark regret
M[D]y spirit longs to journey as the sun begins to [G]set

[G]For we raped and killed, we stole your land, we r[C]uled with guns and knives
[D]Fed whiskey to your warriors while we stole away your w[G]ives
[G]Said Running Elk, what's done is done, you w[C]hite men rule this land
[D]So lay the cards face up and play your last broken-hearted h[G]and

(Chorus)
[C]Oh, the wind blows c[G]old
[D]On the trail of the [Em]buffalo
[C]Oh, the wind blows c[G]old
[D]In the land of the N[Em]avajo
[D]In the land of the N[Em]avajo

[Solo]

[Verse 5&6]
[G]When you're dealing cards with death, the joker's wild, the a[C]ce is high
[D]Jack bid the Mississippi River, Running Elk raised him the s[G]ky
[G]Jack saw him with the sun and moon and u[C]pped him with the stars
[D]Running Elk bet the Rocky Mountains, Jupiter, and M[G]ars

[G]The sun was sinking in the west when Jack d[C]rew the ace of spades
[D]Running Elk just rolled his eyes, he smiled and passed a[G]way
[G]Jack picked up his torquoise stones and c[C]ast them to the sky
[D]He stared into the setting sun and then made a mournful c[G]ry

(Chorus)
[C]Oh, the wind blows c[G]old
[D]On the trail of the b[Em]uffalo
[C]Oh, the wind blows c[G]old
[D]In the land of the N[Em]avajo
[D]In the land of the N[Em]avajo
