You and the Buffalo
© 1989 Bryan Masters
G Em C D G Em C D
G Am C G Em C D
You used to roam and rule this land like royalty
G Am C G Em C D
'Til I demanded your pledge of hand
G Am
I guess I didn't think it through
C D
'Til piece by piece I started losing you
G Em C D G Em C D
G Am C G Em C D
Just a few short years ago your smile still shone
G Am C G Em C D
I guess I gradually took it for my own
G Am
Like only two hundred years ago
C D
this prairie was the land of the buffalo
C D G
'Til somebody crowded them out like I did you
Em C D G Em C D
Am D
And I guess this time you're finally gone for good
G Em
You and the buffalo
Am D
I didn't see it coming like I should
G D
You and the buffalo
Am C D
Left in the night without saying a word
Em Am
Gone like the great herd
C D G Em
Does anybody know where you and the buffalo go?
C D G
Does anybody know where you and the buffalo go?
Em G Em G Em G Em
I can't get used to the sound of an empty room
Like a night on the prairie,
quiet as the moon
What happened to that joyful sound
Of life in the air when you were still around
Well that's one thing only you and the buffalo know
