[Intro] Em D6(9)/F#
Em D6(9)/F#
[Primeira Parte]
Em D6(9)/F#
On the first part of the journey
Em D6(9)/F#
I was looking at all the life
Em
There were plants and birds
D6(9)/F#
And rocks and things
Em D6(9)/F#
There was sand and hills and rings
Em
The first thing I met
D6(9)/F#
Was a fly with a buzz
Em D6(9)/F#
And the sky with no clouds
Em
The heat was hot
D6(9)/F#
And the ground was dry
Em D6(9)/F#
But the air was full of sound
[Refrão]
Em
I've been through the desert
D6(9)/F#
On a horse with no name
Em
It felt good to be out
D6(9)/F#
Of the rain
Em
In the desert
D6(9)/F#
You can remember your name
Em
'Cause there ain't no one
[Próxima Parte]
D6(9)/F#
For to give you no pain

[Segunda Parte]
Em D6(9)/F#
After two days in the desert sun
Em D6(9)/F#
My skin began to turn red
Em D6(9)/F#
After three days in the desert fun
Em D6(9)/F#
I was looking at a river bed
Em
And the story it told
D6(9)/F#
Of a river that flowed
Em D6(9)/F#
Made me sad to think it was dead
[Refrão]
Em
You see, I've been through the desert
[Próxima Parte]
D6(9)/F#
For to give you no pain

[Terceira Parte]
Em
After nine days
D6(9)/F#
I let the horse run free
Em
'Cause the desert
D6(9)/F#
Had turned to sea
Em
There were plants and birds
D6(9)/F#
And rocks and things
Em
There was sand and hills
D6(9)/F#
And rings
Em
The ocean is a desert
D6(9)/F#
With its life underground
Em D6(9)/F#
And a perfect disguise above
Em
Under the cities
D6(9)/F#
Lies a heart made of ground
Em D6(9)/F#
But the humans will give no love
[Refrão]
