   F#m           F#m7          
My Sisters and I      

         Asus2         
have one wish before we die

       F#m       F#m7             
And it may sound strange

          Asus2       Aadd9
as if our minds are deranged

       F#m               F#m7             
Please don't ask us why,      

            Asus2      
beneath the sheltering sky

             F#m       F#m7 
We have this strange obsession

             Asus2            Aadd9
You have the means in your possession
[Chorus 1]
E            E5        Aadd9   Asus2
Tea in the Sahara with you

E            E5        Aadd9   Asus2
Tea in the Sahara with you
[Verse 2]
    F#m               F#m7   
The young man agreed.      

         Asus2
He would satisfy their need

        F#m            F#m7            
So they danced for his pleasure

       Asus2             Aadd9
with a joy you could not measure

       F#m                F#m7
They'd wait for him here    

         Asus2
the same place every year.

            F#m        F#m7
Beneath the sheltering sky

           Asus2           Aadd9
across the desert he would fly
[Chorus 2]
E            E5        Aadd9   Asus2
Tea in the Sahara with you,

E            E5        Aadd9   Asus2
Tea in the Sahara with you.

E            E5        Aadd9   Asus2
Tea in the Sahara with you,

E            E5        Aadd9   Asus2   C#m7 C#m7add11 C#m7
Tea in the Sahara with you -   oo -    Oooooo.
C#m C#m7add11 C#m (x7) [Verse 3]
    F#m                  F#m7
The sky turned to black.      

         Asus2
Would he ever come back?

           F#m          F#m7 
They would climb a high dune

           Asus2       Aadd9
they would pray to the moon.

       F#m             F#m7
But he never returned

       Asus2
so the sisters would burn

         F#m               F#m7             
As their eyes searched the land

           Asus2              Aadd9
with their cups still full of sand
[Chorus 3]
E            E5        Aadd9   Asus2
Tea in the Sahara with you,

E            E5        Aadd9   Asus2
Tea in the Sahara with you.

E            E5        Aadd9   Asus2
Tea in the Sahara with you,

E            E5        Aadd9   Asus2   C#m7 C#m7add11 C#m7
Tea in the Sahara with you -   oo -    Oooooo.
