The Desert Rose Band was an American country rock band from California, founded in 1985 by Chris Hillman (formerly of The Byrds and the Flying Burrito Brothers), and Herb Pedersen and John Jorgenson. Also in the original lineup were Bill Bryson (bass guitar), Jay Dee Maness (pedal steel guitar), and Steve Duncan (drums). Herb sang the high tenor part above Chris' tenor and each Desert Rose Band album featured Herb on one lead vocal. In the 1980s and early 1990s, the band charted several singles on the U.

EAB
They tell me I'm the talk of the town ABE I've been staying home alone every night AB It's nobody's business where I'm bound ABE As if to be alone and lonely just ain't right AB On a old freight train moving down the line ABE
I'm counting each day and every minute that your away
AB I've never been the stay at home kind ABE But for you it's just the price that I pay BE It's just the price I pay for loving you BAE The price I pay for needing you so much F#B The price I pay for needing you ABEDAB7 And putting all this time between us BEF# I knew I was in trouble when we met EF#B Dark clouds all around me I couldn't find the light BEF# The hard time ain't hard to forget EF#B I believe in love at first sight EAB I put my heart and soul on the line ABE And know your love is with me every day EAB Your picture always there on my mind ABE But for you it's just the price that I pay BE It's just the price I pay for loving you BAE The price I pay for needing you so much F#B The price I pay for needing you ABEDAB7E And putting all this time between us
