C Am
Warm are the winds on the desert
C Em
A whirlwind is dancing around
F Em Dm C
I stopped to survey all the beauty that's here
Am F G
When a shadow moves out across the ground
C Am
It's an eagle that circles above me
C Em
And he screams to his friends on the hill
F Em Dm C
Stay close together move not a feather
Dm Em Dm Em
Man walks among us be still be still
Dm G7 C
Man walks among us be still
Am
Everything hides but I see them
C Em
I've spotted an old mother quail
F Em Dm C
I look close and see looking right back at me
Am F G
The eyes of a young cottontail
C Am
I see a coyote sneaking as he crawls
Em
Through the brush on the hill
F Em Dm C
And the eagle screams down stay close to the ground
Dm Em Dm Em
Man walks among us be still be still
Dm G7 C
Man walks among us be still
F Em
Twenty feet high in the side of a Cactus
F C
I see a hole where the Butcher bird stays
F Em
If mortals could choose and if Heaven should ask us
D7 G7
Here's where I'd want to spend all of my days
C Am
Soon will be gone all the desert
C Em
Cities will cover each hill
F Em Dm C
Today will just be a fond memory
Dm Em Dm Em
Man walks among us be still be still
Dm G7 C
Man walks among us be still
