Lost On The Desert Chords & Lyrics - Johnny Cash

Capo: 1 Fret

A b[F]urnin' hot sun a [C]cryin' for water [F]black wings circle the [G]sky
S[C]tumblin' and [F]fallin' [C]somebody's [F]callin' you're [C]lost on the [G]desert to [C]die

I [C]had to give up and they [F]took me to j[C]ail but I hid all the [F]money I [G]got
Way [F]out on the desert where [C]no one could get it and [F]I left a [G]mark at the [C]spot
Then [F]I got away and I [C]ran for the desert the [F]devil had taken [G]control
[C]I needed [F]water but [C]he said I'd [F]make it near the [C]money is a [G]big water[C]hole

A b[F]urnin' hot sun a [C]cryin' for water [F]black wings circle the [G]sky
S[C]tumblin' and [F]fallin' [C]somebody's [F]callin' you're [C]lost on the [G]desert to [C]die

[GUITAR SOLO]

J[C]ust up ahead is where [F]I left my [C]mark or it may be to the [F]left or the [G]right
I've been [F]runnin' all day and they'll [C]catch up tomorrow [F]I've got to [G]find it
t[C]onight
Then [F]up jumped the devil and [C]ran away laughin' he [F]drank all the waterholes
d[G]ry
He [C]moved my [F]mark till I'm [C]running in [F]circles and [C]lost on the [G]desert to [C]die

A b[F]urnin' hot sun a [C]cryin' for water [F]black wings circle the [G]sky
S[C]tumblin' and [F]fallin' [C]somebody's [F]callin' you're [C]lost on the [G]desert to [C]die

[C] [G] [C] [G] [C] (Fade out)
Lost on the desert to die, lost on the desert to die
