In The Dreamtime

    C        G        C      F   
The scent of smoke on desert 
 C            Am       Dm       G
wind, beneath the southern cross,
C     G          C      F    C
Far beyond where time begins, 
        Am      Dm      G
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        
But in the dreamtime souls take 
  C
flight,
    F    C      G      C
And I am closer to you now.
   C        G      C       F     
If I should lay me down to sleep,
C          Am       Dm       G
 by forest green or shining lake,
C       G        C       F     
I could arise to find it gone, 
C           Am      G     C
to take for granted my mistake.

C         G       C       F     
Mountains crumble forests 
  C      Am      Dm     G
vanish, seeds awakened by the fire,
C     G           C          F 
Water air and the earth have 
       C          Am      G       
born them and I can feel my own ones
 C
 near.

C          G       C      F    
Flames are dancing in the fire,
C         Am        Dm     G
 timeless songs are on the air,
C      G     C            F     
In the wilderness they’re 
 C            Am       G    C
crying, but there’s laughter 
everywhere.
    C              F              
Yet I could not be further from
