verse 1)
Em D6
On the first part of the journey
Em D6
I was looking at all the life
Em D6
there were plants and birds and rocks and things
Em D6
there was sand and hills and rings
verse 2)
Em D6
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
Em D6
and the sky with no clouds
Em D6
the heat was hot and the ground was dry
Em D6
but the air was full of sound
Em D6
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
Em D6
it felt good to be out of the rain
Em D6
in the desert you can't re- member your name
Em D6
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
Em D6 Em D6
La lalala lalalalalala lala la
Em D6 Em D6
La lalala lalalalalala lala la
verse 3)
Em D6
After two days in the desert sun
my skin began to turn red
Em D6
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
Em D6
it felt good to be out of the rain
Em D6
in the desert you can't re- member your name
Em D6
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
Em D6 Em D6
La lalala lalalalalala lala la
Em D6 Em D6
La lalala lalalalalala lala la

verse 4
Em D6
After nine days I let the horse run free
'cause the desert had turned to sea
Em D6
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
Em D6
it felt good to be out of the rain
Em D6
in the desert you can't re- member your name
Em D6
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
