Fm D#6
On the first part of the journey
Fm D#6
I was lookin at all the life
Fm D#6
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
Fm D#6
There were sand and hills and rings
Fm D#6
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
Fm D#6
and the sky with no clouds
Fm D#6
the heat was hot and the ground was dry
Fm D#6
but the air was full of sound
Chorus:
Fm9 D#maj7
Iʼve been through the desert on a horse with no name
Fm9 D#maj7
it felt good to be out of the rain
Fm9 D#maj7
in the desert you can remember your name
Fm9 D#maj7
ʼcause there ainʼt no one for to give you no pain
Fm9 D#maj7
la la la la lalala la la la la la
Fm D#6
After two days in the desert sun
Fm D#6
my skin began to turn red
Fm D#6
After three days in the desert fun
Fm D#6
I was looking at a river bed
Fm D#6
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Fm D#6
made me sad to think it was dead
Chorus:
Fm9 D#maj7
Iʼve been through the desert on a horse with no name
Fm9 D#maj7
it felt good to be out of the rain
Fm9 D#maj7
in the desert you can remember your name
Fm9 D#maj7
ʼcause there ainʼt no one for to give you no pain
Fm9 D#maj7
la la la la lalala la la la la la
Fm D#6
After nine days I let the horse run free
Fm D#6
ʼcause the desert had turned to sea
Fm D#6
there were plants and birds and rocks and things
Fm D#6
there were sand and hills and rings
Fm D#6
The ocean is a desert with itʼs life underground
Fm D#6
and the perfect disguise above
Fm D#6
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
Fm D#6
but the humans will give no love
Chorus:
Fm9 D#maj7
Iʼve been through the desert on a horse with no name
Fm9 D#maj7
it felt good to be out of the rain
Fm9 D#maj7
in the desert you can remember your name
Fm9 D#maj7
ʼcause there ainʼt no one for to give you no pain
Fm9 D#maj7
la la la la lalala la la la la la
