Tom: E5 E5 D5 On the first part of the journey E5 D5 I was lookin at all the life E5 D5 There were plants and birds and rocks and things E5 D5 There were sand and hills and rings E5 D5 The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz E5 D5 And the sky with no clouds E5 D5 The heat was hot and the ground was dry E5 D5 But the air was full of sound Chorus: E5 D5 I've been through the desert on a horse with no name E5 D5 It felt good to be out of the rain E5 D5 In the desert you can remember your name E5 D5 'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain E5 D5 la la la la la la la la la la la la E5 D5 After two days in the desert sun E5 D5 My skin began to turn red E5 D5 After three days in the desert fun E5 D5 I was looking at a river bed E5 And the story it told of a river that flowed D5 Made me sad to think it was dead **Chorus E5 D5 After nine days I let the horse run free E5 D5 'Cause the desert had turned to sea E5 D5 There were plants and birds and rocks and things E5 D5 There were sand and hills and rings E5 D5 The ocean is a desert with it's life underground E5 D5 And the perfect disguise above E5 D5 Under the cities lies a heart made of ground E5 D5 But the humans will give no love **Chorus
