     Em                                                       D                             Em
        When the morning breaks and the sunlight warms my soul
                                                                   D
        In the East the Eagle flies, and the Red Tail proudly soars
                         Em               G                           Em
        I'm on my way~ to the place of the spirit one
                  G                                              D
        Grandfather hear me now, I am on fire
                     Em                                                   G
        Let the sundance guide my feet to your desire
                       D
        Give me visions for my eyes
               Am                                                      D
        And words like gold that shimmer in the sun
               Em       D         Em
        Hyi-ah, hyi-ah, hyi-ah

        When the sun goes down and it grows too dark to see
        I look within to the Shaman's mystery
        I'm on my way~ to die and live, again
        Grandmother Earth I cry, give me rest
        I take my place with the woman in the West
        Show me the Raven and the Bear
        The way of herbs and the black obsidian
        Hyi-ah, hyi-ah, hyi-ah

        Turn toward the South, like water I will run
        In innocence and trust the Moonchild's song is sung
        I'm on my way~ to the place of the sacred plants
        My emotions and my will at their command
        Where the Turtle's voice is heard upon the land
        Where the wise Coyote prowls
        The Rattlesnake will call me to the dance
        Hyi-ah, hyi-ah, hyi-ah

        In the deepest night when the stars watch over me
        Old Woman of the North my mind seeks clarity
        I'm on my way~ to the place of the Northern winds
        Let the Thunder and the Lightning carry me
        Lay my thoughts to rest and send me into sleep
        With the Hawk and the Buffalo
        My dreams white crystal magic medicine
        Hyi-ah, hyi-ah, hyi-ah, hyi-ah, hyi-ah...
