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