[Verse 1]
Bm A6/9
On the first part of the journey
Bm A6/9
I was lookin at all the life
Bm A6/9
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
Bm A6/9
There were sand and hills and rings
Bm A6/9
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
Bm A6/9
and the sky with no clouds
Bm A6/9
the heat was hot and the ground was dry
Bm A6/9
but the air was full of sound
[Chorus]
Bm9 Amaj9
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
Bm9 Amaj9
it felt good to be out of the rain
Bm9 Amaj9
in the desert you can remember your name
Bm9 Amaj9
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
Bm9 Amaj9
La la la la lala la lala
Bm9 Amaj9
la la la
[Verse 2]
Bm A6/9
After two days in the desert sun
Bm A6/9
my skin began to turn red
Bm A6/9
After three days in the desert fun
Bm A6/9
I was looking at a river bed
Bm A6/9
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Bm A6/9
made me sad to think it was dead
[Chorus]
Bm9 Amaj9
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
Bm9 Amaj9
it felt good to be out of the rain
Bm9 Amaj9
in the desert you can remember your name
Bm9 Amaj9
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
Bm9 Amaj9
la la la la lala la lala
Bm9 Amaj9
la la la
[Verse 3]
Bm A6/9
After nine days I let the horse run free
Bm A6/9
'cause the desert had turned to sea
Bm A6/9
there were plants and birds and rocks and things
Bm A6/9
there were sand and hills and rings
Bm A6/9
The ocean is a desert with it's life underground
Bm A6/9
and the perfect disguise above
Bm A6/9
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
Bm A6/9
but the humans will give no love
[Chorus]
Bm9 Amaj9
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
Bm9 Amaj9
it felt good to be out of the rain
Bm9 Amaj9
in the desert you can remember your name
Bm9 Amaj9
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
Bm9 Amaj9
la la la la lala la lala
Bm9 Amaj9
la la la
