[Intro]
Em Em D6/9
D6/9 x2
[Verse 1]
Em
D6/9
On the first part of
the journey
Em
D6/9
I was looking at all
the life
Em
D6/9
There were plants
and birds and rocks
and things
Em
D6/9
There were sand and
hills and rings
Em
D6/9
The first thing I
met was a fly with a
buzz
Em
D6/9
And the sky with no
clouds
Em
D6/9
The heat was hot and
the ground was
dry
Em
D6/9
But the air was full
of sound
[Chorus]
Em9
Dmaj9
I've been through
the desert on a
horse with no
name
Em9
Dmaj9
It felt good to be
out of the rain
Em9
Dmaj9
In the desert you
can remember your
name
Em9
Dmaj9
'Cause there ain't
no one for to give
you no pain
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la
la la, la, la
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la
la la, la, la
[Verse 2]
Em
D6/9
After two days in
the desert sun
Em
D6/9
My skin began to
turn red
Em
D6/9
After three days in
the desert fun
Em
D6/9
I was looking at a
river bed
Em
D6/9
And the story it
told of a river that
flowed
Em
D6/9
Made me sad to think
it was dead
[Chorus]
Em9
Dmaj9
You see I've been
through the desert
on a horse with no
name
Em9
Dmaj9
It felt good to be
out of the rain
Em9
Dmaj9
In the desert you
can remember your
name
Em9
Dmaj9
'Cause there ain't
no one for to give
you no pain
Em9
Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la
la la, la, la
Em9
Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la
la la, la, la
[Verse 3]
Em
D6/9
After nine days I
let the horse run
free
Em
D6/9
'Cause the desert
had turned to sea
Em
D6/9
There were plants
and birds and rocks
and things
Em
D6/9
There were sand and
hills and rings
Em
D6/9
The ocean is a
desert with its life
underground
Em
D6/9
And a perfect
disguise above
Em
D6/9
Under the cities
lies a heart made of
ground
Em
D6/9
But the humans will
give no love
[Chorus]
Em9
Dmaj9
You see, I've been
through the desert
on a horse with no
name
Em9
Dmaj9
It felt good to be
out of the rain
Em9
Dmaj9
In the desert you
can remember your
name
Em9
Dmaj9
'Cause there ain't
no one for to give
you no pain
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la
la la, la, la
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la
la la, la, la
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la
la la, la, la
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la
la la, la, la
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la
la la, la, la
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la
la la, la, la
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la
la la, la, la

La, la, la lala la
