EA
This proud wild land where the wind blows free,
EC#m
has always been a part of me.
ABEB
It's in my blood, I just can't get it out..
EA
For a hundred miles a man can see
EC#m
and be about as wild as he wants to be.
ABEB
If he feels like shouting, all he's gotta do is shout.
[Verse 2]
EA
Where the purple mountains, reach up high
EC#m
and look like they're gonna touch the sky.
ABEB
Where the canyon walls have stood for a million years..
EA
Where the days are hot, the nights are cold,
EC#m
the desert sand, looks just like gold.
ABEB
These trails were carved with sweat and blood and tears..
[Verse 3]
EA
Where the Painted Desert, as you pass by,
EC#m
looks like a rainbow in the sky.
ABEB
The cactus blooms in the early morning sun..
EA
Where the night winds sing, the eagles fly,
EC#m
the clouds paint pictures in the sky.
ABE
The coyote's howl, tells you when day is done.
[Bridge]
AE
I'm coming home, this time I'm gonna stay.
AF#BmAG#mB
I'm coming home and I ain't never goin' away..
[Verse 4]
EA
My feet are itching to get back home,
EC#m
I've had the desert fever since I been gone.
ABEB
I need some love so bad that I can't see..
EA
When a woman looks a man in the eye,
EC#m
you know it takes a man to satisfy.
ABE
Thinking about them girls is killing me.
