Horse With No Name (America)

(starts on B)
EmD/BEm
On the first part of the journey, I was looking
D/BEm
at all the life. There were plants and birds and
D/BEm
rocks and things, there were sand and hills and
D/B
rings.
EmD/B
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz and
EmD/BEm
the sky with no clouds. The heat was hot and the
D/BEmD/B
ground was dry, but the air was full of sound.
[chorus]:
    Em
    I've been through the desert on a
    Dmaj7Em
    horse with no name, it felt good to be
    Dmaj7Em
    out of the rain. In the desert you
     
    Dmaj7
    can't remember your name, 'cause there
    EmDmaj7
    ain't no one for to give you no pain.
EmDmaj7EmDmaj7
la la, la, la-la la-la, la la-la la, la la
(x2)
EmD/BEm
After two days in the desert sun my skin began
D/BEmD/B
to turn red. After three days in the desert fun
EmD/BEm
I was looking at a river bed, and the story it
D/BEm
told of a river that flowed made me sad to think
D/B
it was dead.
[chorus]
EmD/B
After nine days, I let the horse run free 'cause
EmD/BEm
the desert had turned to sea. There were plants
D/BEm
and birds and rocks and things, there were sand
     
D/B
and hills and rings.
EmD/B
The ocean is a desert with its life underground,
EmD/BEm
and the perfect disguise above. Under the cities
D/BEm
lies a heart made of ground, but the humans will
D/B
give no love
