Verse:

Gm         D7          Gm
Where is a home to com-pare with mine
D#m6                     Gm  D7
When the evening shadows fall
Gm             D7         Gm
Where does the moon never fail to shine
A7            D7
On the garden wall?

Chorus 1:

   G              C  D7
In my Adobe Hac-i-en-da
Am        D7            G D7
There's a touch of Mexi-co
G                    C  D7
Cactus lovelier than or-chids
Am       D7          GG7
Blooming in the pati-o

G           G7
Soft desert stars
        C                CBA#
And the strum of gui-tars
A7                         D7   C#7D7
Make ev'ry evening seem so sweet

   G              C  D7
In my Adobe Hac-i-en-da
Am       D7                G    D7
Life and love are more com-plete

Chorus 2:

   G              C  D7
In my Adobe Hac-i-en-da
Am     D7              G    D7
Nestled in the western hills
G                       C   D7
Evening breezes soft-ly mur-mur
Am     D7             G    G7
Harmon-y with whippor-wills

G            G7
When setting sun
         C               CBA#
Says the long day is done
A7                            D7 C#7D7
Sweet music seems to fill the air

   G               C  D7
In my Adobe  Hac-i-en-da
Am     D7         G    D7D7G6
Harmon-y is ev'ry-where
