Chords with lyrics

BRIGHT BLUE ROSE (Mary Black) Capo 1
----------------
C majorC                FF
I skimmed across black water, without once submerging
C majorC               G+G
Onto the banks of an urban morning
C majorC               FF
That hungers the first light, much much more than the
C majorC     G+G   C majorC
mountains ever do.
C majorC                FF
And she like a ghost beside me, goes down with the case

of a dolphin
C majorC      G+G
And emerges unlearned, unshamed, unharmed
C majorC              FF
For she is perfect creature, natural in every feature
  C majorC     A minorAm      G+G       C majorC
And I am the geek with the alchemists' stone.

FF      G+G       C majorC
For all of you who must discover,
FF       G+G     C majorC
For all who seek to understand,
FF       G+G       C majorC
For having left the path of others
Bb majorBb       FF      G+G
You'll find a very special hand.


C majorC              FF
And it is a holy thing, and it is a precious time
C majorC          G+G
And it is the only way
C majorC                   FF
Forget-me-nots among the snow, it's always been and so

it goes
C majorC       A minorAm       G+G    C majorC
To ponder his death and his life eternally


C majorC              FF
And it is a holy thing, and it is a precious time
C majorC          G+G
And it is the only way
C majorC                  FF
Forget-me-nots among the snow, it's always been and so

it goes
C majorC       A minorAm      G+G    C majorC
To ponder his death and his life eternally

C majorC
One bright blue rose outlives all those
FF
Two thousand years and still it goes
  C majorC      A minorAm      G+G    C majorC
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.
