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

            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

        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

        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

          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
   G        D7/F#   G
To face the desert again
       C
As the dawn reveals the journey's end
   F                  C
In truth, it's only beginning
    G                        E7      C    D7
And it's as big as your eyes wish to see

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

F  C    F  C  G    E7  C
C    F  C  G    E7  Am   D7

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