There is a link to a mp3 of Dreamtime on the songs2play website.
Also a couple more of Ralph's music and lyrics.
I would also be grateful for the chords if anyone has them.

I'm just posting the lyrics for the benefit of others....

IN THE DREAMTIME   

Ralph McTell

The scent of smoke on desert wind
Beneath the Southern Cross
Far beyond where time begins
And generations lost.

I could not be further from you now
With both feet on the ground
But in the Dreamtime
Souls take flight
I am a closer to you now

If I should lay me down to sleep
By forest green or shining lake
I could arise to find you gone
To take for granted my mistake

Chorus

Mountains crumble forests vanish
Seeds awakened by the fire
Water earth and air have borne them
And I can feel my own ones near

Chorus

Flames are dancing in the fire
Timeless songs are on the air
In the wilderness they're crying
But there is laughter everywhere

Chorus

Hey Songs2Play, good website... and putting the chord symbols next to the lyrics is genius

I was on a tab there, Back Home In Derry, i have the Christy Moore version and i dont know if anyone else has done it, but when i played along to it with those chords it worked brilliantly.

Was wondering if you had any more Christy Moore chords on your site????

I would also like to place a request for the chords to Christy Moore - The Voyage!!!

I can't find them anywhere, i can usually find a tab or something but all the tab websites only have 1 or 2 songs by him.

Anyway, thanks and keep up the good work.

Hiya s6k,
Thanks for the comments on the website.
I'm afraid I cannot take the complements on the Christy Moore - Back Home in Derry page, as the Chords and Lyrics were supplied by Tom McNevin Yardley, PA USA..(note at bottom of webpage)
I don't spend as much time as I should on the website, but I try and concentrate more on the Ralph McTell stuff, when I'm on it.
I'll drop Tom an e-mail to see if he's got any more of Christy Moore's stuff.

By the way if you have any stuff you want to add to the site I'll put it on and put a note at the bottom of the song page.

s2p.
