The Band - Smoke Signal: chords

G                  C
Went to the movie matinee
G                                  F
To see the blue coats try to get away
         D
From a smoke signal
G
Above the trees
    D
A smoke signal
  G
Shifting in the breeze

Some folks think it's make believe
Other folks ain't so naive
About a smoke signal
Could see it coming
A smoke signal
Hear the drums drumming

Chorus:
A
You don't believe what you read in the paper
G                        D
You can't believe the stranger at your door
A
You don't believe what you hear from your neighbor
G                      C                   D
Your old neighborhood ain't even there no more

Indian maid will plant the seed
And cultivate a whole new breed
There's a smoke signal
Over your head
A smoke signal
You know what it said?

When they're torn out by the roots
Young brothers join in cahoots
To send a smoke signal
Near and far
A smoke signal
No matter where you are

Chorus

Tried to get in touch with you
Tried to get my message through
By smoke signal
Honey, do ya read me
Smoke signal
Call me if you need me

There you were all in white
Standing out in the broad daylight
Lookin' like a smoke signal
From heaven above
Smoke signal
Oh, my love
