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
CmI dream of rain
BbI dream of gardens in the desert sand
AbI wake in pain
Fm7 G7sus4
I dream of love as time runs through my hand
CmI 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
EbThis desert rose
Gm7Each of her veils, a secret promise
BbThis desert flower
Fm7/Ab G7sus4
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this
CmAnd now she turns
This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams
This fire burns
I realize that nothings as it seems
CmI dream of rain
BbI dream of gardens in the desert sand
AbI wake in pain
Fm7 G7sus4
I dream of love as time runs through my hand
EbI dream of rain
Gm7I lift my gaze to empty skies above
BbI close my eyes
Fm7/Ab G7sus4
The rare perfume is the sweet intoxication of her love
Cm (Solo sect.)
CmI dream of rain
BbI dream of gardens in the desert sand
AbI wake in pain
Fm7 G7sus4
I dream of love as time runs through my hand
EbSweet desert rose
Gm7Each of her veils, a secret promise
BbThis desert flower
Fm7/Ab Fm7
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this
EbSweet desert rose
Gm7This memory of Eden haunts us all
BbThis desert flower, This rare perfume
Fm7/Ab G7sus4
is the sweet intoxication of the fall…
