Desert Rose by Sting

Intro: C#m – B please listen to the song to get the timing
C#m
I dream of rain

I dream of gardens in the desert sand

I wake in pain

I dream of love as time runs through my hand

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

This desert rose

Each of her veils, a secret promise

No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

I close my eyes

The rare perfume is the sweet intoxication of her love
