Intro 1
(D major) (A minor) (D major) (B minor) (C major)
(E minor) (G major)
Was it summer (E minor) when the river
Verse 1
(C major)
ran (D major) dry, (B minor)
(B major) Or was it just another dam. (E major) (E minor) (G major)
When the evil of a snowflake (C major) in (D major) June
Could still (G major) be a source (B minor) of relief.
(C major) (E minor) O how I love you,
I once cried long ago,
But I was the one who decided to go.
(A minor) To search bey (D minor) ond the final (Fdim) crest,
Though I'd heard it said just
(E minor) birds could (B minor) dwell so (C major) high.
(D major)

Verse 2
So (G major) I pretended to have
wings (C major) for (D major) my arms (B minor)
And (Bsus4) took off (B major) in the (E major) air.
(G major) I flew to places which
the clouds (C major) never see, (D major)
Too (B minor) close to the deserts of sand, (C major)
Where a (E minor) thousand mirages,
the shepherds of lies (A major)
(E minor) Forced me to land and take a disguise.
(A major) I would (A minor) welcome a horse's
kick (D minor) to send me back (Fdim)
If I could find a horse (E minor) not (B minor)
made of sand.
(C major) (D major)
Verse 3
(E major)
If this desert's all there'll
(F sharp minor) ever be (F sharpdim)
Then tell me what be (F major) comes of me. (C major)
(D major) A fall of (B flat major) rain? (Csus4) (F major)
That (Fdim) must have been an
(B flat major) other of your dream (F major) s,
A dream of (A minor) mad (G major) (E minor) man (D major) (E major) moon. (E minor) (E major)

Verse 4
Hey man, (C sharp major)
I'm the sand (C sharpsus4) man.
And (C sharp major) boy have I news (F sharp major) for (C sharp major) you;
They're (C sharpsus4) gonna throw (C sharp major) you in gaol
And you know they can't fail
''cause sand is thicker than blood.
(B major) But a (E major) prison in sand
Is a haven in hell,
For a gaol can give you a goal
[and a] goal can (E sharpdim) find (C sharp major) you a (E sharp major) role
On a muddy pitch in Newcastle,
Where it rains so much
You can't wait for a touch
Of sun (F sharp minor) and sand, (E major)
(F sharp major) sun and sand...
(D sharp minor) (D sharpsus4) (D sharp minor) (F sharp major)
Verse 5
(G major)
Within the valley (E minor) (G major) of shadowless (D major) death
(Bsus4) They pray for thunderclouds (B major) and rain, (E major)
(D major) But (G major) to the mul (E minor) titude
who stand (C major) in the rain (D major)
(B minor) Heav (G major) en is (B minor) where the sun shines. (C major)
The (E minor) grass will be greener till the
stems turn to brown
And thoughts will fly higher till
the earth brings them down. (E major)
(A minor) Forever caught (D minor) in desert lands (Fdim)
one has to learn
To disbe (E minor) lieve (B minor) the sea.
(C major) (D major)
Verse 6
(E major)
If this desert's all there'll (F sharp minor)
ever be (F sharpdim)
Then tell me what becomes (F major) of me. (C major)
(D major) A fall of (B flat major) rain? (Csus4) (F major)
That (Fdim) must have been an
(B flat major) other of your dream (F major) s,
A dream of (A minor) mad (Asus4) (E minor) man (D major) (E major) moon.
