Black Mary - Bright Blue Rose2 guitar chord

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 case

of a dolphin

C            G

And emerges 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.
