Em D6add9/F#
on the first part of the journey ,
Em D6add9/F#
i was looking at all the life .
Em D6add9/F#
there were plants and birds and rocks and things ,
Em D6add9/F#
there was sand and hills and rings .
Em D6add9/F#
the first thing i met was A fly with a buzz
Em D6add9/F#
and the sky with no clouds .
Em D6add9/F#
the heat was hot and the ground was dry ,
Em D6add9/F#
but the air was full of sound .

chorus :
Em9 Dsus2/F#
i’ve been through the desert on A horse with no name ,
Em9 Dsus2/F#
it felt good to be out of the rain .
Em9 Dsus2/F#
in the desert you can’t re – member your name
Em9 Dsus2/F#
’cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain .
Em9 Dsus2/F# Em9 Dsus2/F#
la la , la lala la la , la la la , la la . 2

x Em D6add9/F#
after two days in the desert sun ,
Em D6add9/F#
my skin began to turn red
Em D6add9/F#
after three days in the desert fun ,
Em D6add9/F#
i was looking at a river bed .
Em D6add9/F#
and the story it told of A river that flowed
Em D6add9/F#
made me sad to think it was dead .

chorus :
Em9 Dsus2/F#
i’ve been through the desert on A horse with no name ,
Em9 Dsus2/F#
it felt good to be out of the rain .
Em9 Dsus2/F#
in the desert you can’t re – member your name
Em9 Dsus2/F#
’cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain .
Em9 Dsus2/F# Em9 Dsus2/F#

Em9 D6add9/F#
after nine days i let the horse run free
Em9 D6add9/F# Bm7
’cause the desert had turned to sea
Em9 D6add9/F# Bm7
there were plants and birds and rocks and things
Em9 D6add9/F# Bm7
there was sand and hills and rings
Em9 D6add9/F#
the ocean is a desert with it’s life underground
Em9 D6add9/F#
and A perfect disguise A – bove
Em9 D6add9/F#
under the cities lies A heart made of ground
Em9 Dsus2/F#
but the humans will give no love
