	  (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.

Am                D                        G
    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.

Am                D                        G
    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.

( Am C D )

              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.
