[Em] [D]
[Em] [D]
[Em] On the first part of the [F#m]
[G] journey, [Em] I was looking at all the [D]
life.
[Em] There were plants and birds and [D] rocks and things.
[Em] There was sand and hills and [Bm] rain.
[Em] The first thing I met [F#m] was a fly with [D] a [Em] buzz and the sky with no [F#m] [D] clouds.
[Em] The heat was hot [F#m] and the ground [Em] was dry but the air was full [D] of sound.
[G] I've been through the desert on a horse with no name.
It felt good to be out of the rain.
In the desert, you [Bm] can remember your [G] name because there ain't no one for to give you no pain.
[Em] La la [Bm] la la la la [Em] la la la la [Bm] la la [Em] la la
[Bm] la la la [Em] la la la [B] la la [Em] la la la la la la la la
After two days [F#m] in the desert [D] sun, [Em] my skin began to [F#m] turn [Em] red.
After three days [F#m] in the desert [Em] fun, I was looking at a river [D] bed.
[Em] And the story you told [D] of a river that flowed [Em] made me sad to think it [D] was dead
[Em] You see I've been through the desert [Bm] on a horse with no name
It [Em] felt good to be out [D] all the rain
[A] [Em] In the desert you [D] can remember your name
[Em] Cause there ain't no one [F#m] born to give you [Em] no pain
La la la [D] la la la la [Em] la [D] la la

[D] [Em] nine days I [F#m] let the horse [D] run free
[Em] Cause the desert had turned to [F#m] sea
[G] There were plants and birds [F#m] and rocks [Em] and things
There was sand and hills and rain
The ocean is a desert with its life underground
And the perfect disguise [D] above
[Em] Under the cities [F#m] lies a heart made of brown
[Em] But the humans will give [F#m] no love
[Em] See I've been through the desert [A] on a horse with no [Em] name
It felt good to be out [D] all the rain
[Em] In the desert you [D] can remember [Em] your name
Cause there ain't no one [D] born to give you no pain
