[Verse 1]
C Am C
A legend told of treasure in the West
C Am C
Lost long ago, soon I became obsessed
F Am
Off did I fly across the platinum dunes
F C
'Neith Onyx sky and ivory mask of moon
[Verse 2]
C Am C
At break of day under an opal dawn
C Am C
I made my way through canyons burnished bronze
F Am
I plunged my head in topaz tinted pools
F C
Then on I sped in search of secret jewels
[Chorus]
Am F C
Long I've ridden through this de-sert
Am F C
Chasing X's on the shifting sands
Am F C
Somewhere hidden lies that trea-sure
G F Fm
But I fear it's slipping through my hands
[Verse 3]
C Am C
Onward I roved, I followed silver streams
C Am C
Through emerald groves and found a sparkling spring
F Am
A sapphire set in golden poppy fields
F C
But no buried chest of riches locked and sealed
[Chorus]
Am F C
Long I've ridden through this de-sert
Am F C
Chasing X's on the shifting sands

Somewhere hidden lies that trea-sure
G F Fm
But I fear it's slipping through my hands
[Bridge]

I met a girl with lips so ruby red
Am Em
Bright copper curls and sheets of silken thread
Dm Am Em
She begged me stay with diamonds in her eyes
Dm Ddim Am
But I stole away to find my real prize
[Chorus]
F Dm Am
Long I've ridden through this de--sert

Chasing X's on the shifting sands

Somewhere hidden lies that trea--sure

But I fear it's slipping through my hands
