        Em               Dsus2
On the first part of the journey
       Em               Dsus2
I was looking at all the life.
            Em                  Dsus2
There were plants and birds and rocks and things,
           Em                Dsus2
there was sand and hills and rings.
     Em                    Dsus2
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
        Em                  Dsus2
and the sky,        with no clouds.
     Em                  Dsus2
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
        Em              Dsus2
but the air was full of sound.

I've been through the desert on a horse with no name.
        Em9                    DM9
It felt good to get out of the rain.
       Em9               DM9
In the desert, you can remember your name
              Em9               DM9
because there aint no one for to give you no pain.

Em9        DM9                 Em9      DM9
 La la, la, la la la la   La la la, la, la
Em9        DM9                 Em9      DM9
 La la, la, la la la la   La la la, la, la


      Em             Dsus2
After two days in the desert sun
    Em               Dsus2
my skin began to turn red.
       Em              Dsus2
After three days in the desert fun
       Em               Dsus2
I was looking at a river bed.
        Em                Dsus2
And the story it told of a river that flowed 
         Em                Dsus2
made me sad to think it was dead.

      Em                 Dsus2
After nine days I let the horse run free
            Em                  Dsus2
because the desert had turned to sea.
             Em                 Dsus2
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
           Em                Dsus2
there was sand and hills and rings.
    Em                         Dsus2
The ocean is a desert with it's life underground
       Em              Dsus2
and a perfect disguise above.
          Em                Dsus2
Under the cities     lies a heart made of ground
        Em                 Dsus2
but the humans will give no love.
