The Desert Chords

(ver. 1)
Glen Campbell
Intro   Gm C Bb Gm Am Dm G Bb F C   

Verse 1

    Dm          Am
The desert is a barren land 
  Bb           Gm       Am
A widerness of rock and sand
   Dm                 G           Bb   F  C
It crys aloud for the fall of the rain
    Dm           Am
And ever sifting sea of dust
     Bb             Gm       Am
That knows no mecry shows no trust
  Dm                   Am         Bb
A sunbaked waste for a scorpion's domain

Verse 2

    Gm                  Am
The dunes they rise the dunes they fall
Bb                Dm
Marching forth to conqueor all
                     Am                Bb   Dm
That have no mind to move out of their way
Bb                F
The man who turns heart away 
     A      A7        Bb
From Jesus Christ the King
         F
Is as a desert

Verse 3

    G7                               Bb     Dm
His sand is made of faith in earthly things
    Bb           Am
His hopes become mirages 
        Bb                   Gm
And his heart grows cold and cruel
                         A7
And when a man enthrones himself as King
     Bb  C           Dm   Bb  C  F
Then His master is a fool

Chorus

           C               Gm                 Dm
The desert can move into a garden filled with fruits
    Bb                F              G
The King of Peace can fall in a holy storm
    F                C            Gm                Dm
His sand can turn to clay for the potter's hands to shape
        D#             Bb                C
Yes the deserts of the heart can be transformed
                       C7     Dm    C F Bb Gm Am Dm G Bb C#7
If you open your heart to the Lord

    F#               C#           G#m               D#m
His sand can turn to clay for the potter's hands to shape
