Tea Leaf Green - Taught to be Proud

      [Verse]

Em                 C        D            G 
I was taught to be proud of where I come from
       Em   C       Bm      A 
And I'm so sad that I'm the only one.
       Em    C                   D       G 
Like a cold preacher boy talking only to himself
    C      Bm    A A A
How did he think that he got to promised lands?

[Chorus] 

D             C
Gone, gone, gone,
G              D
Not gone for long,
            D            C           G           D
If you're taught to be proud of where you come from.

D             C
Gone, gone, gone,
G              D
Not gone for long,
            D            C           G           D
If you're taught to be proud of where you come from.

[Verse 2]

       Em        C                   D               G
It's hard to be cool when you're playing for the prophets;
       Em        C             Bm            A 
They really know if you got it or you lost it.
       Em         C               D                 G
I'll sing this song but I don't know where it came from,
   C              Bm                 A            A       A
Reminds me of a mountainside to stand upon and gently hum.

[Chorus]

D             C
Gone, gone, gone,
G              D
Not gone for long,
            D            C           G           D
If you're taught to be proud of where you come from.

D             C
Gone, gone, gone,
G              D
Not gone for long,
            D            C           G           D
If you're taught to be proud of where you come from.

[Verse 3]

Em                 C        D            G 
Sometimes I'm confused I don't know where I'm going,
      Em   C       Bm      A 
Mistaking gentle rivers for that cold wind a-blowing.
       Em    C                   D       G 
And I'm always sure of an angel when she gets here,
    C      Bm    A A A
But I never see her coming and I miss her when she disappears.
