On the first part of the journey

I was looking at all the life

There were plants and birds and rocks and things

There was sand and hills and rings

The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz

And the sky with no clouds

The heat was hot and the ground was dry  [Intro]

But the air was full of sound               G#m F#

                                            G#m F#

I've been through the desert     [Chorus]

    on a horse with no name

It felt good to be out of the rain

In the desert, you can remember your name

Cos there ain't no one for to give you no pain

((…/La) la la lalalala la - Lalala lala x2)

                                ╔══════════════╗

After two days in the desert sun     A Horse   ║

My skin began to turn red       ║ With No Name ║

After three days in the desert fun   America   ║

I was looking at a river bed    ╚══════════════╝

And the story it told of a river that flowed

Made me sad to think

    it was dead         You see [Chorus] [Intro]

                                            (x4)

After nine days, I let the horse run free

Cos the desert had turned to sea

There were plants and birds and rocks and things

There was sand and hills and rings

The ocean is a desert with its life underground

And a perfect disguise above

Under the cities lies a heart made of ground

But the humans

    will give no love      You see [Chorus] (x8)
