Desert Wind

	  		

                    Am                E            Am 
There's a wind blowing down the canyon  
                     Dm                      E 
so hot and dry the rocks turn red. 
                         Am           E           Am 
Shade grows thin and shrinks to nothing 
               Dm            E      Am 
as the sun climbs overhead. 

 
                       F                   C 
What can I say? You said it all.  
                      F                          E 
Your words ride on the desert wind,  
               Am  
telling me about tomorrow  
                     Dm          E      Am  
and how a heart can love again.
 


                               Am         E               Am  
Did you see the stars while you were sleeping  
                   Dm                         E 
as they crossed the midnight sky? 
                  Am       E             Am 
 could hear my own heart beating  
               Dm      E        Am  
in the stillness of the night. 

(Chorus) 

                Am               E          Am 
It's all alone with the earth and sky, 
                         Dm                      E 
the nights are long, the days go slow. 
                       Am             E           Am 
Your loving way, like the wind, reminds me  
                     Dm         E          Am 
there is so much that I don't know. 

(Chorus)
