Dm
In the flowering desert lies the heart and soul of man
Dm
Find a deep well to draw from, and give back as you can
Dm
In the moonlight musicians hear their tunes in the burren wind
Dm
And in the shadows where an old faith's sheltered, a painter's work begins


D#5sus4    D9-5sus4                 Dm#5  A#6-5
Footsteps,      I could learn to listen
D#5sus4    D9-5sus4          Dm#5  A7-3b5
to footsteps, how I long to trace
D#5sus4    D9-5sus4                 Dm#5  A#6-5
Footsteps,      I could learn to listen
D#5sus4    D9-5sus4          Dm#5  Am   A7-3b5  
to footsteps, of an ancient race

Dm
the Fertile Rock
Dm   
Na - - - Da Da Da Da...  Na Da Da Da (x2)

To the flowering desert, roll the wheels of greed
Wells dry forever, the orchid starts to bleed


Footsteps,      I could learn to listen
to footsteps, how I long to trace
Footsteps,      I could learn to listen 
to footsteps, of an ancient race

Na - - - Da Da Da Da...  Na Da Da Da (x2)
