BLUEBELLS
by Moon Safari
[SEGUE FROM MOONWALK]
INTRO
5/8
G+G (stay on G+G for 30 seconds or so)
C majorC G+G
C majorC Bm/G G+G
G+G G+G C majorC G+G
VERSE
G+G
Dancing on the feet of a miracle
C majorC G+G
While winter's growing cold
Life seems almost cynical
C majorC G+G
In the gardens of green and gold
While the apples of Eden are calling me
C majorC G+G
I sometimes just can't believe
That man was made a replica
C majorC G+G
Of someone else's dream
PRECHORUS
C majorC D MajorD G+G
Away to where the rainbow's just a stoney throw away
C majorC D MajorD G+G
Where kings and queens assemble, just to greet the world and say:
C majorC D MajorD E minorEm A augmentedA
Bear witness to the princess as she lights her precious dome,
C majorC D MajorD
and bluebells call you home
CHORUS
G+G C majorC G+G
Home, home, bluebells calling home
G+G C majorC
Home, home, bluebells calling
VERSE
G+G
Home to all the broken melodies
C majorC G+G
Is a home for all the sunny skies
To rhyme without a reason endlessly
C majorC G+G
Just look at how the butter flies
When the evensong sings through the mezzanine
C majorC G+G
And the birds interrupt the trees
They were talking in the forest hatching up a scheme
C majorC G+G
When winter comes they'll up and leave
PRECHORUS
C majorC D MajorD G+G
To find the swirling oceans made of conscience and of clay
C majorC D MajorD G+G
The weight of all this nonsense we must carry down the way
C majorC D MajorD E minorEm A augmentedA
Towards the great reunion of the apple and the crow
C majorC D MajorD
Come on it's time to go
CHORUS
G+G C majorC G+G
Home, home, bluebells calling home
G+G C majorC G+G
Home, home, bluebells calling home
G+G C majorC G+G
Home, home, bluebells calling home
G+G C majorC G+G
Home, home, bluebells calling home

BRIDGE
G+G C majorC
Tell the tree of sunlight, tell the day of rain
G+G FF Bb majorBb
Listen for the flutter, rising up again
G+G C majorC
Better off without a suitcase is the mind
G+G FF Bb majorBb
Grasping at a moon beam, counting out the time
G+G C majorC
I was only eight when magic touched my ear
G+G FF Bb majorBb
Now it seems the only thing I hear
G+G C majorC
Is the everlasting chorus of a neverlasting dream
G+G FF Bb majorBb
Locked inside my fantasy

ANOTHER BRIDGE
6/8
D MajorD G minorGm
So listen up campers along with the rain
C majorC G+G D MajorD
The promise of sunshine again
G minorGm
With all that is pretty and all that is blue
C majorC G+G D MajorD
The bluebell shines for you
G minorGm
Now somebody sold my blank endeavour
C majorC G+G D MajorD
To the creatures that walk on the moon
G minorGm
In time you'll see the world at the speed of light
C majorC G+G D MajorD
As we all set stones in bloom

A augmentedA CAPELLA
Dancing on the feet of a miracle
while winter's growing cold
Life seems to be almost cynical
in gardens of green and gold
Dancing on the feet of a miracle
while winter's growing cold
Life seems to be almost cynical
in gardens of green and gold
The light has come to free this song of anything that goes
The featherless magician shakes his head and tells us slow
The poet down on main street can't believe his sunken eyes
D MajorD
A augmentedA calling from the skies!
G+G C majorC D MajorD
G+G C majorC D MajorD
VERSE
G+G
I've never seen a brighter sun
C majorC D MajorD
Than the one the crow incorporated
G+G
Into his painted rivers three
C majorC Bm/G G+G
As the apple reunites the broken melody
G+G
Blue is my direction home
C majorC D MajorD
Into a world where every ghostly figure
G+G
Flutter round the cosmic tare
C majorC D MajorD
As we're dancing on the feet of miracles every-
CHORUS
G+G C majorC D MajorD G+G
Where do flowers go, when all is said and done
C majorC D MajorD G+G
They hope and pray, to find a second sun
C majorC D MajorD G+G
With golden shores, and amber painted skies
C majorC D MajorD
Where poets run, and bluebells call home...
G+G C majorC D MajorD
G+G C majorC D MajorD
VERSE
G+G
I've never seen a better day
C majorC D MajorD
Than the one that drove the clouds away
G+G
Forever from this holy earth
C majorC D MajorD G+G
And the bluebells simple words just resting in the dirt
G+G
And finally it seems to me
C majorC D MajorD
this has got to be the place indeed
G+G
I'm just sitting in the gardens green
C majorC D MajorD
watch the blue above and simply dream...
my dreamy dream
CHORUS
G+G C majorC D MajorD G+G
Where do flowers go, when all is said and done
C majorC D MajorD G+G
They hope and pray, to find a second sun
C majorC D MajorD G+G
With golden shores, and amber painted skies
C majorC D MajorD G+G
Where poets run, and bluebells, bluebells call home
