F G C C7
I see the night that she’s alone
F G C
I keep thinking back to home.
F G E7 Am
I’ve got that feeling I know that it shows
F G C
I missed my sweet desert rose.
F G C C7
Shines like the stars in the sky
F G C
A breath of life in a well gone dry.
F G E7 Am
She picks me up when I feel it so low.
F G C
She’s my sweet desert rose.
F G C
Ain’t no money in our home town
F C G
And the mills have all shut down.
F G E7 Am
They say there’s work but it’s always the next town.
F G C
Will you still love me when I’m gone.
F G C
Will you still love me when I’m gone
F G C
Though the empty nights and the days so long.
F G E7 Am
I’m not the same and I guess that it shows
F G C
I missed my sweet desert rose.
SOLO
F G C
I hear the wind blowing in the night.
F G C
Winter’s come and it just ain’t right.
F G E7 Am
This loneliness but it comes and it goes.
F G C
I love my sweet desert rose
F G C
Ain’t no money in our home town
F C G
And the mills have all shut down.
F G E7 Am
They say there’s work but it’s always the next town.
F G C
Will you still love me when I’m gone
F G C
I love my sweet desert rose
F G C
I love my sweet desert rose
