Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

Verse:
G minorGm            FF
I went into the desert and I missed him
C minorCm
Don't know if it was the mountains
Bb majorBb           FF
Asking questions

G minorGm             FF
I went into the desert and I held him
C minorCm
Through a muddy creek, he
Bb majorBb          FF
Was sand pooling in my hands

G minorGm             FF
And every night the desert sang a love song
C minorCm            Bb majorBb     FF
And inside my languid body was a fight
G minorGm              FF
And every night I hoped that he would come home
C minorCm         Eb MajorEb    FF
But by daylight I knew it wasn't right

Interlude:
G minorGm       FF
Eb MajorEb       DmDm

Verse:
G minorGm
The wash is drying up
FF
Underneath the red sunset
C minorCm
And I am a lizard slinking through
Bb majorBb      FF
The valley of regret

G minorGm
Oh I'm the wild coyote
FF
Yelping at the midnight sky
C minorCm
A augmentedA lover, forgotten how to love
Bb majorBb         FF
The sparrow, how to fly


Chorus:
G minorGm           FF     Eb MajorEb     DmDm
Hollow, hollow when the moon is rising, rising

G minorGm            FF
Lost my footing in the desert canyon
C minorCm            Bb majorBb  FF
I lost him, and I lost my home

G minorGm            FF
Saw him vanish into the horizon
C minorCm     Eb MajorEb      FF
And there I was, left to be alone

G minorGm    FF    Eb MajorEb      G minorGm
Hollow, hollow when the moon is rising, rising

Verse:
G minorGm
The wash is drying up
FF
Underneath the red sunset
C minorCm
And I am a lizard slinking through
Bb majorBb       FF
The valley of regret

G minorGm
Oh I'm the wild coyote
FF
Yelping at the midnight sky
C minorCm
A augmentedA lover, forgotten how to love
Bb majorBb        FF
The sparrow, how to fly

G minorGm
The wash is drying up
FF
Underneath the red sunset
C minorCm
And I am a lizard slinking through
Bb majorBb        FF
The valley of regret

G minorGm
Oh I'm the wild coyote
FF
Yelping at the midnight sky
C minorCm
A augmentedA lover, forgotten how to love
Bb majorBb         FF
The sparrow, how to fly

Chorus:
G minorGm      FF     Eb MajorEb     DmDm
Hollow, hollow when the moon is rising, rising
