[Em] On the first part of the [D6/9] journey

I was [Em] lookin at all the [D6/9] life

There were [Em] plants and birds and [D6/9] rocks and things

There were [Em] sand and hills and [D6/9] rings

[Em] The first thing I met was a [D6/9] fly with a buzz

And the [Em] sky with no [D6/9] clouds

The [Em] heat was hot and the [D6/9] ground was dry

But the [Em] air was full of [D6/9] sound

I've [Em9] been through the desert on a [Dmaj9] horse with no name

It felt [Em9] good to be out of the [Dmaj9] rain

In the [Em9] desert you can re-[Dmaj9]-member your name

'Cause there [Em9] ain't no one for to [Dmaj9] give you no pain

La [Em9] la la la [Dmaj9] lalala

La [Em9] la la la [Dmaj9] la

After [Em] two days in the [D6/9] desert sun

My [Em] skin began to turn [D6/9] red

After [Em] three days in the [D6/9] desert fun

I was [Em] looking at a river [D6/9] bed

And the [Em] story it told of a [D6/9] river that flowed

Made me [Em] sad to think it was [D6/9] dead

I've [Em9] been through the desert on a [Dmaj9] horse with no name

It felt [Em9] good to be out of the [Dmaj9] rain

In the [Em9] desert you can re-[Dmaj9]-member your name

'Cause there [Em9] ain't no one for to [Dmaj9] give you no pain

La [Em9] la la la [Dmaj9] lalala

La [Em9] la la la [Dmaj9] la

La [Em9] la la la [Dmaj9] lalala
 
La [Em9] la la la [Dmaj9] la

After [Em] nine days I let the [D6/9] horse run free

'Cause the [Em] desert had turned to [D6/9] sea

There were [Em] plants and birds and [D6/9] rocks and things

There were [Em] sand and hills and [D6/9] rings

The [Em] ocean is a desert with its [D6/9] life underground

And the [Em] perfect disguise a-[D6/9]-bove

Under the [Em] cities lies a [D6/9] heart made of ground

But the [Em] humans will give no [D6/9] love
