Verse 1
C
I discovered the valley
of the shifting whispering sands
many years ago.
I saw the bones of cattle
G
C
G
picked clean by buzzards,
bleached by the desert suns.
I stumbled over a crumbling buckboard
nearly covered by the sands,
and stopping to rest,
C
I heard a tinkling, whispering sound
and suddenly realized that even
though the wind was quiet,
the sands did not lie still.
G
I seemed to be surrounded by a mystery
so heavy and oppressive
I could scarcely breathe.
For weeks I wandered aimlessly in this valley,
C
seeking answers to the many questions
F
that raced through my fevered mind.
Where was everyone?
Why are the white bones?
C
Finally, I could go no farther.
I sat down and buried my
D
face in my hands.
It was then I learned the secret
G
of the shifting whispering sands.
C
Yes, it whispered to me
of the days of long ago,
when the settlers and the miners
G
fought the crafty Navajo.
How the cattle roamed the valley,
happy people work the land,
and now everything is covered
C
by the shifting, whispering sands.
How they found the ancient miner
G
lying dead upon the sand.
After months they could but wonder
C
if he died by human hands.
So they dug his grave
and laid him on his back
G
and crossed his hand
And his secret still is hidden
C
by the shifting whispering sound
G
F
This is what they whispered to me
C
on a quiet desert hill
D
Of the people and the cattle
G
and the miner like them
C
If you want to learn this theme,
G
wander through this quiet land
And I'm sure you'll hear the story
C
of the shifting whispering sands
F
C
Shifting, whispering sound
