[Verse]
Gm Gm GmGather round the fire boys, a story I will tell
Gm GmAbout a persecution I’m sure you don’t know well
Gm GmAn Oklahoma tale of trading land and gems
Gm Gm GmGoin’ down a river that you can’t come back up again
Gm Gm GmAnna Brown was killed in May of ‘21
Gm GmThey made it look like Anna was just having too much fun
Gm GmMeanwhile, in town they threw a big parade
Gm GmThere stood William Hale and the range war that he waged
[Instrumental]
Gm Gm Gm Gm Gm Gm Gm Gm
[Verse]
Gm Gm GmJust across the county on that very day
Gm GmIn a pool of blood did Charles Whitehorn lay
Gm GmCharles was Anna’s cousin, so was Henry Roan
Gm Gm GmWho died shortly after William Hale made him a loan
Gm Gm GmWilliam Hale had him a nephew who’d married Molliе Kyle
Gm GmMollie was Anna’s sister and it sunk in aftеr a while
Gm GmIn cities across the country all the papers read
Gm Gm“Reign of Terror Continues, Another Indian Dead”
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
Gm Gm GmOl’ Hickory Andrew Jackson drove ‘em down through Tennessee
Gm GmFrom Ohio came the Osage, the mountains, Cherokee
Gm GmThey left ‘em there to wither on that southern Kansas soil
Gm Gm GmBut this was before the man discovered oil
Gm Gm GmIf you come around here with pretty flowers to sow
Gm GmYou might stop and notice nobody’s very old
Gm GmGrass grows so high it covers up the graves
Gm GmListen for a while and it might start givin’ names
[Outro]
G GmThey called him the King of the Osage Hills
C GmHe went and got everybody killed
G GmNow they talk about the weather like it’s judgment coming soon
Cm Gm GmFor the Killers of the Flower Moon
