Aurora Borealis
    C
The icy sky at night
Dm
Paddles cut the water
     C
In a long and huried fight
         G     Bb     F      C
From the white man to the fields of green
       G      Bb F   C
And the homeland weve never seen

C Dm C

They killed us in our teepees
They cut our women down
They mightve left some babies
Cryin on the ground
But the firesticks and the wagons come
And the night falls on the settin sun

C C Dm C G Bb F C

They massacred the buffalo
Kitty corner from the bank
Taxis run across my feet
And my eyes have turned to blanks
In my little box at the top of the stairs
With my Indian rug and a pipe to share

C C Dm C G Bb F C

I wish I was a trapper
I would give a thousand pelts
To sleep with Pochahontas
And fight out how she felt
In the mornin on the fields of green
In the homeland weve never seen

C

And maybe Marlon Brando
Will be there by the fire
Well sit and talk about Hollywood
And the good things there for hire
Like the Astrodome and the first teepee
Marlon Brando Pochahontas and me
Marlon Brando Pochahontas and me
(G)        Bb F C
Pochahontas


Personally, I like this song in the key of A, capoing to the second fret,playing G. 
But in or der to call it a Johnny Cash song, you have to do it
exactly the way he did it. This is a Johnny Cash song. Neil Young wrote it, but
once Johnny sang it, it became his(Johnny's)song. Nobody could ever do a better
job at it.
