    This song is about a man who skims across a river at dawn and encounters a ghostly woman who moves through the water with ease like a dolphin. She emerges unharmed while he sees himself as an imperfect creature. The chorus encourages those who leave the path of others to find understanding. The verses describe finding a bright blue rose among the snow that reminds one to ponder life and debt eternally.

    Bright Blue Rose (Jimmy McArthy)

    (intro)
    Am - D - G -F-C-D
    1.
    (G) I skimmed across Blackwater (C) without once submerging
    (G) onto the banks of an (D) urban morning,
    that (G) hungers the first light (C) much, much more
    than the (G) mountains (D) ever (G)do.

    2.
    And she like a ghost beside me
    goes down with the ease of a dolphin
    and emerges unlearned, unshamed, unharmed,
    for she is the perfect creature, natural in every feature
    and I am the geek with the alchemist’s stone.

    (CHORUS)
    (Am) For all of (D) you who must dis-(G)-cover,
    (Am) for all who (D) seek to under-(G)-stand,
    (Am) for having (D) left the path of (G) others,
    (F) you find a (C) very special (D) hand.

    3.
    And it is a holy thing, and it is a precious time,
    and it is the only way,
    forget-me-nots among the snow, it’s always been and so it goes
    to ponder his debt and his life eternally.
    + CHORUS
    (REPEAT v3)
    + Am - C – D

    (OUTRO)
    (D) One (G) bright blue rose outlives all those
    two (C) thousand years, and still it goes
    to (G) ponder his debt and his (D) life eternally.(G)

    + repeat verse 4 as instrumental ad lib
