[Intro]
|Em |Em |Em |Em |Em |Em G |
|G |G |C |C |C |Em

[Verse 1]
Em
Desert air on skin

The chill of empty space
G
The nomad's grin
C
The sand, the wave and the cold
Em
Will drive him back in

Will keep them close to him

[Refrain]
Em
And they will hide inside
G
Behind blind mirrors

Trembling in tents
C
Hearts weak with fear

He knows
Em
He likes to keep them near

[Verse 2]
Em
And at the night
G
With a pride too big to swallow
C
And with leprous hands
Em
Has them hum and dance to him

[Refrain]
Em
For they have boiled his faith
G
Into abstraction
C
And coiled up in their sickrooms
Em
Their bodies stir-stir-stirring in blankets

[Verse 3]
Em
Like a mother's withered breasts
G
They still set him to dreaming
C Em
Of quartering steel and of climbing fire
