# #BRIGHT BLUE ROSE (Mary Black) Capo 1 # ---------------- C F I skimmed across black water, without once submerging C G Onto the banks of an urban morning C F That hungers the first light, much much more than the C G C mountains ever do. C F And she like a ghost beside me, goes down with the ease of a dolphin C G And awakens unlearned, unshamed, unharmed C F For she is perfect creature, natural in every feature C Am G C And I am the geek with the alchemists' stone. #Chorus# F G C For all of you who must discover, F G C For all who seek to understand, F G C For having left the path of others Bb F G You'll find a very special hand. C F And it is a holy thing, and it is a precious time C G And it is the only way C F Forget-me-nots among the snow, it's always been and so it goes C Am G C To ponder his death and his life eternally #Chorus# C F And it is a holy thing, and it is a precious time C G And it is the only way C F Forget-me-nots among the snow, it's always been and so it goes C Am G C To ponder his death and his life eternally C One bright blue rose outlives all those F Two thousand years and still it goes C Am G C To ponder his death and his life eternally I love this song.....timing is difficult. Capo 1 to tune to CD version of Mary Black. I made up these chords cos there weren't any to be found anywhere....only words! Sounds pretty close to my untrained ear. So I thought I would share them and give back in thanks for all the wonderful music that has so generously been shared with me.
