A Horse With No Name chords
America 1972 (Dewey Bunnell)

Em F#m  2x

       Em                F#m
On the first part of the journey, 
      Em                 F#m
I was looking at all the life. 
           Em                    F#m
There were plants and birds, and rocks and things, 
          Em                 F#m
There was sand and hills and rings.
    Em                       F#m
The first thing I met, was a fly with a buzz, 
        Em           F#m
And the sky, with no clouds. 
    Em                    F#m
The heat was hot, and the ground was dry, 
        Em              F#m
But the air was full of sound. 

     Em                           F#m
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name, 
        Em                    F#m
It felt good to be out of the rain.
       Em               F#m
In the desert you can remember your name, 
             Em                  F#m
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain. 

Em      F#m                Em      F#m
La, la, la la la la, la la la, la, la
Em      F#m                Em      F#m
La, la, la la la la, la la la, la, la

      Em               F#m
After two days, in the desert sun, 
   Em                 F#m
My skin began to turn red.
      Em                 F#m
After three days, in the desert fun, 
      Em                 F#m
I was looking at a river bed. 
        Em                  F#m
And the story it told, of a river that flowed, 
        Em                  F#m
Made me sad to think it was dead.

              Em                           F#m
You see, I've been through the desert on a horse with no name, 
        Em                    F#m
It felt good to be out of the rain.
       Em               F#m
In the desert you can remember your name, 
             Em                  F#m
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain. 
Em      F#m                Em      F#m
La, la, la la la la, la la la, la, la
Em      F#m                Em      F#m
La, la, la la la la, la la la, la, la

      Em                   F#m
After nine days, I let the horse run free, 
           Em                   F#m
'Cause the desert had turned to sea. 
          Em                 F#m
There was sand and hills and rings. 
    Em                          F#m
The ocean is a desert, with its life underground, 
      Em                F#m
And a perfect disguise above. 
          Em                   F#m
Under the cities lies, a heart made of ground, 
        Em                  F#m
But the humans will give no love. 

              Em                           F#m
You see, I've been through the desert on a horse with no name, 
        Em                    F#m
It felt good to be out of the rain.
       Em               F#m
In the desert you can remember your name, 
             Em                  F#m
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain. 

Em      F#m                Em      F#m
La, la, la la la la, la la la, la, la
Em      F#m                Em      F#m
La, la, la la la la, la la la, la, la

Em      F#m                Em      F#m
La, la, la la la la, la la la, la, la
Em      F#m                Em      F#m
La, la, la la la la, la la la, la, la
Em      F#m                Em      F#m
La, la, la la la la, la la la, la, la
Em      F#m                Em      F#m
La, la, la la la la, la la la, la, la
Em      F#m                Em      F#m
La, la, la la la la, la la la, la, la . . .
