[Intro]
N.C
Not far out of Rapid City, South Dekota
There’s a mountain called Bear Butte
Native American people come from all over the world
To come and pray and cleanse their souls
And the first time I went there
I walked up the trail to the top
And as I walked the trail
I spotted thousands upon thousands of prayer ties
Am* N.C.
That people had prayed and request in fond remembrance
Am
On the limbs and branches of the trees
N.C.
It humbled me to know that I walked thru
So many people’s prayers and I wrote this song
Am
On the way down it’s called
N.C Am
Walkin through the prayers from Bear Butte
[Verse 1]
Am
Blackbirds flying, through the darkness
Em
Shooting stars, out in space
Am D Am
Unseen spirits, like phantoms hover
Dm Em7 Am
Like cherub bells from the holy place
Am
Where some have prayed, prayers for freedom
Em
Some beg mercy for their pain
[Verse 2]
E Am7 D7 Am7
Some have shared life’s dreams and visions
Dm7 Em7 Am
When they came down they weren’t the same
G F Am
Step by step, I see my shadow
F C Em7 E7
My true soul, walks with me there
Am G F D F
I shed my tears, I climb this mountain
Am E A Em Am7
As I go walking, through the prayers
[Verse 3]
Am
Majestic form, atop earth's mesa
E
The rocks bear witness, to the truth
Am Dm Am
As I kneel down, and lift my spirit
Dm Em Am
To the holy wonder, at Bear Beat
