Sha-Kon-O-Hey!

Ooh wah, ooh wah, ooh wah, hey

Listen to the sound of the Cherokee
Ooh wah, ooh wah, ooh wah, hey
Eagles fly over Chaconne
Sacred bird of the Cherokee
Land of Blue Smoke calling me
Ooh wah, ooh wah, ooh wah, hey
Chaconne, Chaconne

There are spirits in these hills
Home of the wind and the whip-poor-wills
Stories carried through the years
Warriors, chiefs and the Trail of Tears

You see beauty when the Blue Smoke's rising
You can feel it when the eagle's flying
Every blossom, rock and brook
Looking like a picture angels took

Chaconne
Ooh wah, ooh wah, ooh wah, hey
Listen to the sound of the Cherokee
Ooh wah, ooh wah, ooh wah, hey
Eagles fly over Chaconne
Chaconne

Every woman, man and child
That walks these hills can testify
God walks with them when they go
Hovering near like a Holy Ghost

So believe in what I say
When I speak of Chaconne
Makes no difference where you roam
The land of Blue Smoke is your home

Singing
Ooh wah, ooh wah, ooh wah, hey
Listen to the sound of the Cherokee
Ooh wah, ooh wah, ooh wah, hey
Eagles fly over Chaconne

So keep your memory locked inside
Keep your dreams and hold on tight
Often think back on this day
Chaconne, Chaconne

Singing
Ooh wah, ooh wah, ooh wah, hey
Listen to the sound of the Cherokee
Ooh wah, ooh wah, ooh wah, hey
Chaconne, Chaconne

Ooh wah, ooh wah, ooh wah, hey
Listen to the sound of the Cherokee
Ooh wah, ooh wah, ooh wah, hey
Chaconne
