As recorded by Jesse Welles (2025 release) [Verse 1]
         G
When the desert found me

      C
I was sad and ugly

             G         Am
When motel depressions

                       G
She came up and hugged me

G
And I met Desert Jesus

                C
And I prayed to thee

                 G    Am
I prayed for the sand

                  D7
And it prayed for me
[Chorus]
            C
And I said "Desert bleach my mind

G              Em

And some water first

G
Yucka Valley with 29 palms

Roads to worlds with no roads at all
