E F# B B7 I see the night that sheʼs alone E F# B I keep thinking back to home. E F# D#7 G#m Iʼve got that feeling I know that it shows E F# B I missed my sweet desert rose. E F# B B7 Shines like the stars in the sky E F# B A breath of life in a well gone dry. E F# D#7 G#m She picks me up when I feel it so low. E F# B Sheʼs my sweet desert rose. E F# B Ainʼt no money in our home town E B F# And the mills have all shut down. E F# D#7 G#m They say thereʼs work but itʼs always the next town. E F# B Will you still love me when Iʼm gone. E F# B Will you still love me when Iʼm gone E F# B Though the empty nights and the days so long. E F# D#7 G#m Iʼm not the same and I guess that it shows E F# B I missed my sweet desert rose. E F# B I hear the wind blowing in the night. E F# B Winterʼs come and it just ainʼt right. E F# D#7 G#m This loneliness but it comes and it goes. E F# B I love my sweet desert rose E F# B Ainʼt no money in our home town E B F# And the mills have all shut down. E F# D#7 G#m They say thereʼs work but itʼs always the next town. E F# B Will you still love me when Iʼm gone E F# B I love my sweet desert rose E F# B I love my sweet desert rose
