Hey guys, I'm doing this song acoustically, so here's my cheat sheet. The chords came from the Hal Leonard Book. This should get you through it. Desert Rose by Sting [Verse 1] Cm I dream of rain Bb I dream of gardens in the desert sand Ab I wake in pain Fm7 G7sus4 I dream of love as time runs through my hand Cm I dream of fire These dreams that are tied to a horse that will never tire And in the flames The shadows play in the shape of a mans desire Eb This desert rose Gm7 Each of her veils, a secret promise Bb This desert flower Fm7/Ab G7sus4 No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this Cm And now she turns This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams This fire burns I realize that nothings as it seems [Verse 2] Cm I dream of rain Bb I dream of gardens in the desert sand Ab I wake in pain Fm7 G7sus4 I dream of love as time runs through my hand Eb I dream of rain Gm7 I lift my gaze to empty skies above Bb I close my eyes Fm7/Ab G7sus4 The rare perfume is the sweet intoxication of her love Cm (Solo sect.) Cm I dream of rain Bb I dream of gardens in the desert sand Ab I wake in pain Fm7 G7sus4 I dream of love as time runs through my hand Eb Sweet desert rose Gm7 Each of her veils, a secret promise Bb This desert flower Fm7/Ab Fm7 No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this Eb Sweet desert rose Gm7 This memory of Eden haunts us all Bb This desert flower, This rare perfume Fm7/Ab G7sus4 is the sweet intoxication of the fall… Cm (OUTRO)
