            Desert Skies - The Marshall Tucker Band

[Intro]
| E | % | % | % | 
(Play c# on the beat)

[Verse 1]
     E          G#7
I'm riding along  
A                    E         Gm7   F#m7
Singing the same old cowboy song
                                    E
That's been sung a hundred times before
                         G#7
Ain't got nothing but my name 
    A                   E         Gm7   
And I'm the only man I know to blame
        F#m7        B7              E
But I'm living, I'm happy and I'm free

[Chorus]
                   F#m7
Just listen to the wind blow
       G#m7              Gm7  F#m7
Let it blow, let it blow
                E
Sand over my trail
          F#m7
I got my saddle on the ground
             G#m7                     Gm7   F#m7
And that old moon he can still be found
                      B7
Hiding in the desert sky

[Verse 2]
         E                      G#7      
I like things in life like a prairie breeze
A                    E           Gm7   F#m7
A big stout horse between my knees
                               E
Just riding along, just being me
            E                      G#7
And when I die, let me die with a dream in my mind
A                         E             Gm7
A smile on my face and no trouble behind
              F#m7           B7              E
And no cross on my grave to show my resting place

[Chorus]
                   F#m7
So I can listen to the wind blow
       G#m7           Gm7   F#m7
Let it blow, let it blow
               E
Sand over my trail
          F#m7
I got my saddle on the ground
         G#m7                         Gm7   F#m7
And that old moon he can still be found
                      B7
Hiding in the desert sky

[Solo]
| F#m |
| G#m7  G#m | Gm7 |
| F#m | E |
| F#m |
| G#m7  G#m |  Gm7 |
| F#m | B7 |
(Solo on the chorus) 

[Outro]
            F#m7            B
Won't you bury me with my chaps on
             E                 F#m7
And my six gun strapped to my side
                         F#m7           B7     E
So I can watch the moon hiding in the desert sky

F#m7           B7      E
Hiding in the desert sky
F#m7           B7      E
Hiding in the desert sky
F#m7           B7      E
Hiding in the desert sky
