The Bright Blue Rose by Jimmy McCarthy
The Bright Blue Rose
Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:Ab
Capo:6th fret
[Intro]
D G D A
[Verse]
D G D
I skimmed across black water without once submerging, onto the banks of an urban
A7
morning
D G D A7 D
That hungers the first light, much much more than, the mountains ever do
D G D
And she like a ghost beside me goes down with the ease of a dolphin, and emerges
A7
un-learned, unshamed, unharmed
D G D
For she is perfect creature, natural in every feature, And I am the geek with the
A7 D
alchemists' stone.
[Chorus]
Em A D Em A D
For all of you who must dis-cover, for all who seek to under-stand
Em A D C G A7
For having left the path of others, you'll find a very special hand
[Verse]
D G D A7
And it is a holy thing, and it is a precious time, and it is the only way
D G D
For-get-me-nots among the snow, it's always been and so it goes, to ponder his
A7 D
death, and his life eternal-ly
[Chorus]
Em A D Em A D
For all of you who must dis-cover, for all who seek to under-stand
Em A D C G A7
For having left the path of others, you'll find a very special hand
[Verse]
D G D A7
And it is a holy thing, and it is a precious time, and it is the only way.
D G D
For-get-me-nots among the snow, it's always been and so it goes, to ponder his
A7 D
death, and his life eternal-ly
[Outro]
D G
One bright blue rose outlives all those, two thousand years and still it goes,
D A7 D
To ponder his death and his life eternal-ly (repeat verse pattern to end)
