Bright Blue Rose

(intro) Am D G F C D
    G                           C
    I skimmed across Blackwater without once submerging
     G                          D
    onto the banks of an urban morning,
          G                       C
    that hungers the first light much, much more
              G         D   G
    than the mountains ever do.
         G
    And she like a ghost beside me
     C
    goes down with the ease of a dolphin
    G               D
    and emerges unlearned, unshamed, unharmed,
         G                           C
    for she is the perfect creature, natural in every feature
       G                       D             G
    and I am the geek with the alchemist's stone.

    For all of you who must discover,
Am                D            G
    for all who seek to understand,
Am              D                G
    for having left the path of others,
F               C            D
    you find a very special hand.
        G                       C
    And it is a holy thing, and it is a precious time,
        G               D
    and it is the only way,
        G                               C
    forget-me-nots among the snow, it's always been and so it goes
        G                      D         G
    to ponder his debt and his life eternally.

         G
    One bright blue rose outlives all those
          C
    two thousand years, and still it goes
        G                      D           G
    to ponder his debt and his life eternally.
