Keyboards arranged for guitar (I use very slightly distorted sound
with high settings of compressor and chorus and fast phasing to acheive some similarity with Hammomd sound):

VERSE:
Clean sound with slight reverberation:
Cm Fm A#
There I was on a July morning looking for love.
With the strength of a new day dawning and the beautiful sun.
At the sound of the first bird singing I was leaving for home.
With the storm and the night behind me and a road of my own.

Repeat verse and refrain:
I was looking for love in the strangest places.
There wasn’t a stone that I left unturned.
I must have tried more than a thousand faces,
but not one was aware of the fire that burned
In my heart,
in my mind,
in my soul.
In my heart,
in my mind,
in my soul.
