Êîììåíòàðèé: "America's greatest Hits"
Horse With No Name
Em ------ D6/9 ------ Em9 ------ Dmaj9 ------
|||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||
|**||| *||*|| |*|||* |||**|
|||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||
(Yes, the entire song is played in the second fret!)
I like to strike the base note on a downstroke on the first beat
followed by the bottom four strings. Alternating up and down
on Em and Em9, up only on D6/9 and Dmaj9
Em D6/9
On the first part of the journey
I was lookin at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There were sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
and the sky with no clouds
the heat was hot and the ground was dry
but the air was full of sound
Chorus
Em9 Dmaj9
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
it felt good to be out of the rain
in the desert you can remember your name
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
la la la la lalala la la la la la
After two days in the desert sun
my skin began to turn red
After three days in the desert fun
I was looking at a river bed
And the story it told of a river that flowed
made me sad to think it was dead
chorus
After nine days I let the horse run free
'cause the desert had turned to sea
there were plants and birds and rocks and things
there were sand and hills and rings
The ocean is a desert with it's life underground
and the perfect disguise above
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
but the humans will give no love
It consists of two chords:
E ----
A -7--
D -9--
G ---- and...
B ----
E ----
E -7--
A -5--
D -7--
G -7--
B ----
E ----
And the tab for the stumming pattern looks something like this... play
along with the disc and you will get the gist :)
E 0-0000007777-7
A x-7777775555-x
D x-9999997777-x
G x-0000007777-x
B x-0000000000-x
E x-0000000000-x
Even though everyone else usually uses 4 chords and tries to do the
changes with the vocal line, if you listen to the guitar line on
"Greatest Hits", its only two chords. The first is an E minor
(the 7/9 thing)... the other is something funky... its not exactly
what they play, but its close... Hope you enjoy.
====== (Em)
|||||| This looks like a barre F#m, only ======
++++++ 1st fret the E, B, and e are played open. ||||||
|||X|| ++++++ 1
++++++ 2nd Since I don't know what to call it, |XX|||
|||||| I'll call it F#m, but remember, ++++++ 2
++++++ 3rd NO barre chord. ||||||
|XX||| ++++++ 3
++++++
The strumming goes something like this:
D = Down ; d = Down, but just hit the bottom E ; ^ = up
Em F#m
1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
d D d ^ D ^ D ^ D ^ ^ D ^
** Mute the first 2 ups on the F#m.
Repeat this pattern with each line. (2 bars intro)
Every line is the same, chorus, verses, everything.
For the most part, chord changes on nouns.
The lyrics should be right, as I copied them from an old
copy of that 'greatest hits' album. (back when the sleeves
had lyrics. :)
Em F#m
On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life.
There were plants and birds and rocks and things,

but the air was full of sound.
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name.
It feels good to get out of the rain.
In the desert, you can remember your name
because there aint no one for to give you no pain.
La laaa, laaa, la la la la
La la la, laaa, laaa
La laaa, laaa, la la la la
La la la, laaa, laaa
After two days in the desert sun
my skin began to turn red.
After three days in the desert fun
I was looking at a river bed.
And the story it told of a river that flowed
made me sad to think it was dead.
Chorus
After nine days I let the horse run free
because the desert had turned to sea.
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
there was sand and hills and rings.
The ocean is a desert with it's life underground
and a perfect disguise above.
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
but the humans will give no love.
La laaa, la, la la la la
La la la, laaa, la
etc.
Last verse: s-t-r-e-t-c-h 'above' ( ahhh-bove)
Squeeze in 3 sylables into space of two: ...UnderTheCities...
Enjoy!
