A Horse With No Name by America - acoustic cover by the Moon Loungers
[Chords]
Em 0-2-2-0-0-0
D6/9/F# 2-0-0-2-0-0
[Verse 1]
On the Emfirst part of the D6/9/F#journey
I was lEmookin at all the lD6/9/F#ife
There were pEmlants and birds and D6/9/F#rocks and things
There were sEmand and hills and D6/9/F#rings
The firEmst thing I met was a D6/9/F#fly with a buzz
and the sEmky with no clD6/9/F#ouds
the hEmeat was hot and the gD6/9/F#round was dry
but the aEmir was full of sD6/9/F#ound
[Chorus]
I've bEm9een through the desert on a Dmaj9horse with no name
it felt Em9good to be out of the Dmaj9rain
in the Em9desert you can Dmaj9remember your name
'cause there aEm9in't no one for to Dmaj9give you no pain
La Em9la la Dmaj9la lala la lala
Em9la la lDmaj9a
[Verse 2]
After tEmwo days in the desD6/9/F#ert sun
my sEmkin began to turn D6/9/F#red
After tEmhree days in the D6/9/F#desert fun
I was lEmooking at a river D6/9/F#bed
And the Emstory it told of a D6/9/F#river that flowed
made me Emsad to think it waD6/9/F#s dead
[Chorus]
I've bEm9een through the desert on a Dmaj9horse with no name
it felt Em9good to be out of the Dmaj9rain
in the Em9desert you can Dmaj9remember your name
'cause there aEm9in't no one for to Dmaj9give you no pain
la Em9la la Dmaj9la lala la lala
Em9la la lDmaj9a
[Instrumental]
Em   D6/9/F#x4
[Verse 3]
After nEmine days I let the D6/9/F#horse run free
'cause the dEmesert had turned tD6/9/F#o sea
there were pEmlants and birds and D6/9/F#rocks and things
there were saEmnd and hills and rD6/9/F#ings
The ocEmean is a desert with it's D6/9/F#life underground
and the peEmrfect disguise aD6/9/F#bove
Under the ciEmties lies a hD6/9/F#eart made of ground
but the hEmumans will give no D6/9/F#love
[Chorus]
I've bEm9een through the desert on a Dmaj9horse with no name
it felt Em9good to be out of the Dmaj9rain
in the Em9desert you can Dmaj9remember your name
'cause there aEm9in't no one for to Dmaj9give you no pain
la Em9la la Dmaj9la lala la lala
Em9la la lDmaj9a
