# Namibian Skies [Intro – Acoustic guitar + electric guitar hook, short] Oh, Namibian skies Oh, carry me home [Verse 1 – Acoustic guitar, bass, clean electric guitar fills] Green after rain across the northern plains Wild under skies where the morning light remains Dry riverbeds where the old waters once ran Long open roads stretching across the land Thorn trees stand tall in the heat of the day Endless blue skies stretching far away The silence is wide, the open spaces free And everywhere I look, Namibia lives in me [Pre-Chorus – Acoustic guitar + rising electric guitar] Oh, let the wild wind carry me Oh, let these open spaces set me free I found my name again Somewhere in the wind [Chorus – Afro-folk choir + acoustic guitar + bass + electric guitar harmony] Under Namibian skies, I come alive Under Namibian skies, I feel the fire rise Hold me close tonight, let the whole world see Under Namibian skies, this is where I belong Under Namibian skies, this is home to me [Verse 2 – Acoustic guitar, bass, clean electric guitar fills] Sand dunes in the west, glowing red in the sun White waves on the shore where the wild waters run Salt in the wind as the Atlantic roars Fog rolls in slowly along the rugged shores From desert to ocean, the wild meets the sea Endless blue above, endless freedom in me The road keeps on calling across open land And Namibia holds me with a steady hand [Pre-Chorus – Acoustic guitar + rising electric guitar] Oh, let the wild wind carry me Oh, let these open spaces set me free I found my name again Somewhere in the wind [Chorus – Afro-folk choir + acoustic guitar + bass + electric guitar harmony] Under Namibian skies, I come alive Under Namibian skies, I feel the fire rise Hold me close tonight, let the whole world see Under Namibian skies, this is where I belong Under Namibian skies, this is home to me [Bridge – Drums enter + full acoustic guitar + bass + electric guitar] From north to the south, these roads carry me Through mountains and plains to the wild open sea Through silence and space, through the desert wind Every road that I travel brings me home again From the green northern lands to the sands of the west From the Atlantic shore to the south's rugged edge One endless horizon beneath skies so blue Wherever this road goes, it leads me to you [Final Chorus – Full drums + Afro-folk choir + electric guitar lead] Under Namibian skies, I come alive Under Namibian skies, I feel the fire rise Hold me close tonight, let the whole world see Under Namibian skies, this is where I belong Under Namibian skies, from the desert to sea Under Namibian skies, there's a wild heart in me Every road that I walked, every place that I see Brings me back to Namibia, where I'm meant to be [Outro – Acoustic guitar + electric guitar hook] Under Namibian skies This is where I belong From the desert to the sea Namibia, I'm coming home
