Calista Chords & Lyrics - Misc Your Songs - Lucy Hrin

[INTRO]
[Am7] [Em7] [Am7] [Em7]

[VERSE 1]
It’s [Am7]summer time in the desert. I [Em7]see the devils in the dust
I’m [Am7]down by the river, my feet in the water
Someone’s [Em7]coming down to share my trust
It’s [Dm7]Calista she used to be a sailor
In the [Em7]desert now to get warm
For [F]over twenty years the ocean was her highway
A s[Esus4]ailboat was her [E]home

[CHORUS]
[Am]Calista, [E]Calista, She’s a desert [Am]pirate
The [Am]stars brought her [E]here. Now she calls the desert [Am]home

[Instrumental Bridge]
[Am7] [Em7] [Am7] [Em7]

[VERSE 2]
At [Am7]50 years she bought her ship and she [Em7]memorized the stars
On her [Am7]forty-six foot Trilogy with [Em7]female crew she sailed
The [Dm7]first time Calista sailed; Two [Em7]days out to sea
The [F]storm glass started tubing down and the [Esus4]sea began to [E]heave

[CHORUS]
[Am]Calista, [E]Calista, She’s a desert [Am]pirate
The [Am]stars brought her [E]here. Now she calls the desert [Am]home

[Instrumental Bridge]
[Am7] [Em7] [Am7] [Em7]

[VERSE 3]
A [Am7]wall of water right behind, wind [Em7]roaring in their ears
A [Am7]hundred dolphins surfed around
On the [Em7]rollercoaster waves
The [Dm7]crew thrown from the beds at night
Slept [Em7]on the cabin floor
Taking t[F]urns to steer all through the storm
To [Esus4]make it back to [E]shore

[CHORUS]
[Am]Calista, [E]Calista, She’s a desert [Am]pirate
The [Am]stars brought her [E]here. Now she calls the desert [Am]home

[SOLO]
[Am7] [Em7] [Am7] [Em7] [Dm7] [Em7] [F] [Esus4] [E] [Dm7] [Em7] [F] [Em7] [Am]

[VERSE 4]
She never [Am7]told about the hearts she broke
Or [Em7]treasure that she found
She [Am7]didn’t wear an eye patch, no sassy [Em7]bird talking loud
But [Dm7]she saw the world from the ocean and the [Em7]endless open skies
And [F]she likes to remind me it was the [Esus4]best time of her [E]life

[CHORUS]
[Am]Calista, [E]Calista, She’s a desert [Am]pirate
The [Am]stars brought her [E]here. Now she calls the desert [Am]home

[CHORUS]
[Am]Calista, [E]Calista, She’s a desert [Am]pirate
The [Am]stars brought her [E]here. Now she calls the desert [Am]home
