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 You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  C  D  F  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
