VARIOUS BRIGHT BLUE ROSE (MARY BLACK) LYRICS
Bright Blue Rose
Jimmy MacCarthy
D G
I skimmed across black water, without once submerging
D A A7
Onto the banks of an urban morning
D G
That hungers the first light, much much more
D A7 D
Than mountains ever do.
D G
And she like a ghost beside me goes down with the ease of a dolphin
D A A7
And emerges unlearned, unscathed , unharmed.
D G
For she is the perfect creature, natural in every feature
D A D
And I am the geek with the alchemists stone.
Em A D Em A D
For all of you who must discover , for all who seek to understand
Em A D C G A
For having left the path of others, you find a very special hand
D G
And it is a holy thing, and it is a precious time
D A
And it is the only way
D G
Forget-me-nots among the snow, it's always been and so it goes
D A D
To ponder his death and his life eternally
Em A D Em A D
For all of you who must discover , for all who seek to understand
Em A D C G A
For having left the path of others, you find a very special hand
D G
And it is a holy thing, and it is a precious time
D A
And it is the only way
D G
Forget-me-nots among the snow, it's always been and so it goes
D A D
To ponder his death and his life eternally
D
One bright blue rose outlives all those
G
Two thousand years and still it goes
D A7 D
To ponder his death and his life eternally
