[Intro]
C

[Verse]

There's a wilderness, it's a no man's land
F C
Between Alice Springs and the ocean
G E7 C
Seventeen hundred miles of burning sand

And a silken thread keeps a hold on you
F C G
When the emptiness like a potion
E7 C
Tends to fray your reason strand by strand

[Verse]
E7
And there's no more need for the mask you wear
Am G C
When the last goodbyes have been said
G C Am
So kiss the cheeks of your dearest friends
G D7/F# G
And turn to the desert ahead
C
Now you're on your own like a sailing ship
F C G
You're the captain, the crew and the sailors
E7 C D7
Turn around and this is what you see

[Chorus]
G D7 G
This is me, facing me
Em A D7
All alone 'cause I choose to be
C G D G F
With the wind and the sun on me, only me

[Verse]
C
Now you dream so much about being lost
F C G
Your ghost by a coolabah sleeping
E7 C
Haunts you and whispers in your ear

Give up, give up this lonely road
F C
No one knows the promise you're keeping
G E7 C
You can't touch the emptiness out here

[Verse]
E7
But the grace that mends this broken wing
Am G C
The blue sky to regain
G C Am
Will lift those feet and raise those eyes
