bit low, so I listened and played along with the original riff and adjusted it a bit.
power chords and recommend using them coz it sounds better. Give it a try, and if you

Desert Rose by Sting
Attempted tab by Jngoi Seriña
Intro: C#m â?? B please listen to the song to get the timing
[C#m]I dream of rain
[B]I dream of gardens in the desert sand
[A]I wake in pain
[F#m7]I dream of love as time [Ab7sus4]runs through my hand
C#m ( repeat 1st stanza chords )
I dream of fire
These dreams that are tied to a horse that will never tire
And in the flames
The shadows play in the shape of a mans desire
[E]This desert rose
[Abm7]Each of her veils, a secret promise
[B]This desert flower
[F#m7/A]No sweet perfume ever to[Ab7sus4]rtured me more than this
Bridge: C#m â?? Abm7
C#m â?? B â?? A â?? F#m7 â?? Ab7sus4
And now she turns
This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams
This fire burns
I realize that nothings as it seems
[C#m]I dream of rain
[B]I dream of gardens in the desert sand
[A]I wake in pain
[F#m7]I dream of love as time [Ab7sus4]runs through my hand
[E]I dream of rain
[Abm7]I lift my gaze to empty skies above
[B]I close my eyes
[F#m7/Ab]The rare perfume is the [Ab7sus4]sweet intoxication of her love
C#m (Solo sect.)
[C#m]I dream of rain
[B]I dream of gardens in the desert sand

[E]Sweet desert rose
[Abm7]Each of her veils, a secret promise
[B]This desert flower
[F#m7/A]No sweet perfume ever tortured me more t[F#m7]han this
[E]Sweet desert rose
[Abm7]This memory of Eden haunts us all
[B]This desert flower, This rare perfume
[F#m7/A]is the sweet intoxicatio[Ab7sus4]n of the fallâ?¦
