Intro: 0:00
Em | D  - x2

Verse 1: 0:07
        Em
On the first part
        D
Of the journey
       Em
I was looking at
         D
All the life.
0:15
             Em
There were plants and birds
     D
And rocks and things.
            Em
There were sand and hills
     D
And rains.
0:24
     Em
The first thing I met
        D
Was a fly with a buzz
          Em
And the sky
          D
With no clouds.
0:31
     Em
The heat was hot
          D
And the ground was dry,
        Em
But the air was
         D
Full of sounds.

Chorus 1: 0:39
      Em
I've been through the desert
      D
On a horse with no name.
         Em
It felt good to be out
        D
Of the rain.
0:47
        Em
In the desert
           D
You can remember your name
             Em
'Cause there ain't no one for
    D
To give you no pain.

Post-chorus 1: 0:55
 Em     D
La la, la-la-la, la,
       Em      D
La-la-la, la, la.
1:02
 Em     D
La la, la-la-la, la,
       Em      D
La-la-la, la, la.

Verse 2: 1:10
        Em
After two days
        D
In the desert sun
     Em
My skin began
         D
To turn red.
1:17
         Em
After three days
        D
In the desert fun
       Em
I was looking
            D
At a river bed.
1:25
          Em
And the story it told
      D
Of a river that flowed,
         Em
Made me sad to think
        D
It was dead.

Chorus 2: 1:33
               Em
You see, I've been through the desert
      D
On a horse with no name.
         Em
It felt good to be out
        D
Of the rain.
1:41
        Em
In the desert
           D
You can remember your name
             Em
'Cause there ain't no one for
    D
To give you no pain.

Post-chorus 2: 1:48
    Em      D
La la, la, la-la-la, la,
       Em      D
La-la-la, la, la.
1:56
    Em      D
La la, la, la-la-la, la,
       Em      D
La-la-la, la, la.

Verse 3: 2:19
       Em
After nine days
           D
I let the horse run free
            Em
'Cause the desert
               D
Had turned to sea.
2:27
             Em
There were plants and birds
     D
And rocks and things.
            Em
There were sand and hills
     D
And rains.
2:35
    Em
The ocean is a desert
        D
With a life underground
       Em
And a perfect disguise
  D
Above.
2:42
           Em
Under the cities lies
   D
A heart made of ground,
         Em
But the humans
              D
Will give no love.

Chorus 3: 2:50
               Em
You see, I've been through the desert
      D
On a horse with no name.
         Em
It felt good to be out
        D
Of the rain.
2:58
        Em
In the desert
           D
You can remember your name
             Em
'Cause there ain't no one for
    D
To give you no pain.
