{c: }  
[C]   x4
 
[C] Hoof prints and [G] foot prints, 
[C] deep ruts the wagons [F] made 
The [C] victor and the [G] loser came by [C] here [G]  
No [C] head stones but [G] these bones 
[C] Bring Mascalero [F] death moans  
[C] See the smooth black [F] nuggets 
By the [G] thousands laying [C] here  
[C] Petrified but [F] justified are 
[G] these Apache [C] tears [C] [C]    
 
[C] Dead grass, [G] dry roots, 
[C] hunger crying [F] in the night 
[C] Ghost of broken [G] hearts and laws are [C] here [G]  
And [C] who saw the [G] young squaw 
they [C] judged by their [F] whiskey law 
[C] Tortured till she [G] died of pain and [C] fear [C] 
Where the [C] soldiers lay her [F] back 
are the [G] black Apache [C] tears [C] [C] [C]   
 
The [C] young men, the [G] old men, 
the [C] guilty and the [F] innocent 
[C] Bled red blood and [G] chilled alike with [C] fear [G]  
The [C] red men, the [G] white men, 
[C] no fight ever [F] took this land 
[C] So don't raise the [F] dust when you pass [C] here [C]    
They're [C] sleeping and in my [F] keeping 
are [G] these Apache [C] tears [C] [C]
