D|-6----7--9-------------6---7-------------6h7p64---| h = hammer-on

Shine our way home
Read us through the sterile sand the desert's always known
Oh, timeless spirit
Lifeless desert plain
Guide us through the lonely hearts the weather's rightly claimed

CHORUS [3:40] -play riff from [3:09]-
Oh, mighty landscape
Shine the way to salvation
Lead us through the golden light with this heavy crown we've won
The desert god is cloaked in heat
He's sweating out our sins
A foolish trip, the devil's trick to pull down with him
