Bright Blue Rose
I [D] skimmed across black water,[G]without once sub-merging,
[D]Onto the banks of an urban[A] morning,
That[D] hungers the first light[G] much,much more than the[D] mountains[A] ever[D] do,
And [D]she like the ghost beside me,[G]goes down with the ease of a dolphin,
[D]And emerges un[A]learned un shamed unharmed,
For[D] she is the perfect creature,a[G] natural in every feature,
And[D] I am the geek with the[A] alchemist[D] stone.
For[Em] all of[A] you must dis[D]cover, [Em] for all who[A] seek to under[D]stand,
[G] For having[A] left the path of[D] others, [C] you'll find a [G] very special[A] hand.
And [D] it is a holy thing and [G] it is a precious time,
And [D] it is the only [A] way,
For[D]get-me-nots among the snow,it's [G] always been and so it goes,
To [D] ponder his death and his [A] life eternal[D] ly.
