America - A Horse With No Name Chords

[Intro] 
Em Dmaj9 Em Dmaj9 
 
[Verse 1] 
       Em                Dmaj9 
On the first part of the journey 
       Em                Dmaj9 
I was lookin at all the life 
            Em                 Dmaj9 
There were plants and birds and rocks and things 
            Em                Dmaj9 
There were sand and hills and rings 
  
       Em                  Dmaj9 
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz 
         Em           Dmaj9 
and the sky with no clouds 
     Em                   Dmaj9 
the heat was hot and the ground was dry 
         Em              Dmaj9 
but the air was full of sound 
  
[Chorus] 
      Em9                         Dmaj9 
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name 
        Em9                   Dmaj9 
it felt good to be out of the rain 
       Em9           Dmaj9 
in the desert you can remember your name 
              Em9                Dmaj9 
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain 
   Em9    Dmaj9   Em   Dmaj9 
La la   la la lala la lala    
Em9    Dmaj9   Em   Dmaj9 
la la la  
  
[Verse 2] 
       Em                Dmaj9 
After two days in the desert sun 
    Em                Dmaj9 
my skin began to turn red 
       Em              Dmaj9 
After three days in the desert fun 
       Em                Dmaj9 
I was looking at a river bed 
        Em                Dmaj9 
And the story it told of a river that flowed 
       Em                 Dmaj9 
made me sad to think it was dead 
  
[Chorus] 
      Em9                         Dmaj9 
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name 
        Em9                   Dmaj9 
it felt good to be out of the rain 
       Em9           Dmaj9 
in the desert you can remember your name 
              Em9                Dmaj9 
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain 
   Em9    Dmaj9   Em   Dmaj9 
la la   la la lala la lala    
Em9    Dmaj9   Em   Dmaj9 
la la la  
  
[Verse 3] 
       Em                Dmaj9 
After nine days I let the horse run free 
            Em                Dmaj9 
'cause the desert had turned to sea 
            Em                  Dmaj9 
there were plants and birds and rocks and things 
             Em                Dmaj9 
there were sand and hills and rings 
      Em                        Dmaj9 
The ocean is a desert with it's life underground 
          Em              Dmaj9 
and the perfect disguise above 
            Em           Dmaj9 
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground 
         Em                 Dmaj9 
but the humans will give no love 
  
[Chorus] 
      Em9                         Dmaj9 
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name 
        Em9                   Dmaj9 
it felt good to be out of the rain 
       Em9           Dmaj9 
in the desert you can remember your name 
              Em9                Dmaj9 
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain 
   Em9    Dmaj9   Em   Dmaj9 
la la   la la lala la lala    
Em9    Dmaj9   Em   Dmaj9 
la la la  
 Em9    Dmaj9   Em   Dmaj9 
la la   la la lala la lala    
Em9    Dmaj9   Em   Dmaj9 
la la la   
Em9    Dmaj9   Em   Dmaj9 
la la   la la lala la lala    
Em9    Dmaj9   Em   Dmaj9 
la la la  
Em9    Dmaj9   Em   Dmaj9 
la la   la la lala la lala    
Em9    Dmaj9   Em   Dmaj9 
la la la
