         C                    Bm

A desert sunrise, you warm my soul

           Em7                   D

  painting me in shades of clay, covering me whole.

          C                   Bm         

And I'm a lizard, sun bathing in

           Em7         D

  your radiance.  Oh I call you out of hiding.

   C                   Bm

So sweet, so sweet you are.

             Em7                        D

  If I could only have a taste, wrap my lips around your flavor.

     C                                     Bm

Just because you are you, just because you are,

           Em7             D

  So beautiful...

And I've been waiting all this life, in the company of one,

If you could only just, consider the two of us,

B/G                Em9(no 5)

I see you risin', upon the horizon,

           Cmaj7                       Am7

  bringin' light into the day and I am, coastin' on your rays.

B/G                                Em9(no 5) 

When I awoke you spoke through the mist of a misty bliss,

          Cmaj7       Am7

  casting shadows, on all my dismal yesterdays.

B/G                              Em9(no 5)

Do you remember that you told me darlin',

             Cmaj7                Am7

  that I was so real?  I tell you all my tears for you are real.

B/G                                   Em9(no 5)

And we'll cross that bridge again someday.

            Cmaj7           Am7 > > 

  I know we will, I hope we will.

A Desert sunset, a lullaby.

             Em7                          D

  If I could give it all to you, if you'd only let me try.

            C                    Bm

You sing so sweetly, its my only wish.

        Em7                             D

  Music drips from your lips like sweet sips of a summer's kiss (summer raindrops) 

   C                  Bm    

so precious, Tongues twist.

Em7.....  D.....

VERSE 3 - Use chords from intro

       C                  Bm

Desert moonrise, into the night.

            Em7                                     D

  Before we lay our heads to rest, I wish to walk under the splendorous starlight.

        C                          Bm

Sing so sweetly, it’s the sweetest sound,

           Em7                                  D

  and I’ve become weak in the knees, and I drop down and kiss the ground.

           C              Bm

And all my cares, lie far below.

          Em7                          D

  In this earth I wish to die, in this hearth my fire grows.
