C G C F C Am Dm G
The scent of smoke on desert wind, beneath the southern cross,
C G C F C Am Dm G
Far beyond where time begins, and generations lost.
C F C
I could not be further from you now,
Am F G
With both feet on the ground.
C G C
But in the dreamtime souls take flight,
F C G C
And I am closer to you now.
C G C F C Am Dm G
If I should lay me down to sleep, by forest green or shining lake,
C G C F C Am G C
I could arise to find it gone, to take for granted my mistake.
C F C
Yet I could not be further from you now,
Am F G
With both feet on the ground.
C G C
But in the dreamtime souls take flight,
F C G C
And I am closer to you now.
C G C F C Am Dm G
Mountains crumble forests vanish, seeds awakened by the fire,
C G C F C Am G C
Water air and the earth have born them and I can feel my own ones near.
C F C
Yet I could not be further from you now,
Am F G
With both feet on the ground.
C G C
But in the dreamtime souls take flight,
F C G C
And I am closer to you now.
C G C F C Am Dm G
Flames are dancing in the fire, timeless songs are on the air,
C G C F C Am G C
In the wilderness they?re crying, but there?s laughter everywhere.
C F C
Yet I could not be further from you now,
Am F G
With both feet on the ground.
C G C
But in the dreamtime souls take flight,
F C G C
And I am closer to you now.
