FGCC7
I see the night that she's alone
FGC
I keep thinking back to home.
FGE7Am
I've got that feeling I know that it shows
FGC
I missed my sweet desert rose.
FGCC7
Shines like the stars in the sky
FGCA breath of life in a well gone dry.
FGE7Am
She picks me up when I feel it so low.
FGC
She's my sweet desert rose.
FGC
Ain't no money in our home town
FCG
And the mills have all shut down.
FGE7Am
They say there's work but it's always the next town.
FGC
Will you still love me when I'm gone.
FGC
Will you still love me when I'm gone
FGC
Though the empty nights and the days so long.
FGE7Am
I'm not the same and I guess that it shows
FGC
I missed my sweet desert rose.
***SOLO***
FGC
I hear the wind blowing in the night.
FGC
Winter's come and it just ain't right.
FGE7Am
This loneliness but it comes and it goes.
FGC
I love my sweet desert rose
FGC
Ain't no money in our home town
FCG
And the mills have all shut down.
FGE7Am
They say there's work but it's always the next town.
FGC
Will you still love me when I'm gone
FGC
I love my sweet desert rose
FGC
I love my sweet desert rose
