Beyond The Blue Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

F♯Stand on the shores of a site unseen

 The sBubstance of this dwells in me

 Cause my F♯natural eyes only go skin deep

 But the Beye’s of my heart anchor the sea

 PlF♯umbing the depths to the place in between

 The tBangible world and the land of a dreams

 Because F♯everything ain’t quite it seems

 There’s mBore beneath the appearance of things

 A bF♯eggar could be king within the sBhadows,

 Of a wF♯ing B

 And wF♯isdom will honor everyone who will learn

 To lBisten, to love, and to pray and discern

 And tF♯o do the right thing even when it burns

 And to lBive in the light through treacherous turns

 A mF♯an is weak, but the spirit yearns

 To kBeep to the course from the bow to the stearn

 And thF♯row overboard every selfish concern

 That triBes to work for what can’t be earned

 SometF♯imes the only way to return is to Bgo,

 Where the winds willF♯ take you B

 And to let G♯go, of aBll, you cannF♯ot hold onBto

 For the hG♯ope, beyBond,the blF♯ue B

 Yellow F♯and gold as the new day dawns

 Like a vBirgin unveiled who waited so long

 To dF♯ance and rejoice and sing her song

 And reBst in the arms of a love so strong

 No oF♯ne comes unless they’re drawn

 By the vBoice of desire that leads em’ along

 To the F♯redemption of what went wrong

 By the bBlood that coveres the innocent one

 No moreF♯ separatiBon

 BeF♯tween us. B

 So lF♯ift your voice just one more time

 If thBere’s any hope may it be a sign

 That F♯everything was made to shine

 DespBite what you can see

 So taF♯ke this bread and drink this wine

 And hBide your spirit within the vine

 Where F♯all things will work by a good design

 For thoBse who will believe

 And let G♯go, of aBll, you cannF♯ot hold onBto

 For the hG♯ope, beyBond,the blF♯ue B

 Said I letG♯ go, of Ball, I could F♯not hold ontBo

 For the hG♯ope, I haBve, in yF♯ou B
