-----------------------------------------------------------
Black Kettle was their chief, he only wanted peace
-----------------------------------------------------------
-----------4-----------4-------7--7-7------7--7--7---------

-----------------------------------------------------------
Under the flag.... a massacre at Sand Creek

VERSE PART 2:
Play same thing as VERSE 1 part. Lines are "A banner year
1868, a bitter end a twist of fate. Maps won't hold this
melanoma, blurry part of Oklahoma, where Custer shot and
killed Black Kettle.
Play PRE CHORUS
