Beyond The Blue
View chords used in this chart
F#
Stand on the shores of a site unseen
B
The substance of this dwells in me
F#
Cause my natural eyes only go skin deep
B
But the eye’s of my heart anchor the sea
F#
Plumbing the depths to the place in between
B
The tangible world and the land of a dreams
F#
Because everything ain’t quite it seems
B
There’s more beneath the appearance of things
F# B
A beggar could be king within the shadows,
F# B
Of a wing
F#
And wisdom will honor everyone who will learn
B
To listen, to love, and to pray and discern
F#
And to do the right thing even when it burns
B
And to live in the light through treacherous turns
F#
A man is weak, but the spirit yearns
B
To keep to the course from the bow to the stearn
F#
And throw overboard every selfish concern
B
That tries to work for what can’t be earned
F# B
Sometimes the only way to return is to go,
F# B
Where the winds will take you
Ab B F# B
And to let go, of all, you cannot hold onto
Ab B F# B
For the hope, beyond,the blue
F#
Yellow and gold as the new day dawns
B
Like a virgin unveiled who waited so long
F#
To dance and rejoice and sing her song
B
And rest in the arms of a love so strong
F#
No one comes unless they’re drawn
B
By the voice of desire that leads em’ along
F#
To the redemption of what went wrong
B
By the blood that coveres the innocent one
F# B
No more separation
F# B
Between us.
F#
So lift your voice just one more time
B
If there’s any hope may it be a sign
F#
That everything was made to shine
B
Despite what you can see
F#
So take this bread and drink this wine
B
And hide your spirit within the vine
F#
Where all things will work by a good design
B
For those who will believe
Ab B F# B
And let go, of all, you cannot hold onto
Ab B F# B
For the hope, beyond,the blue
Ab B F# B
Said I let go, of all, I could not hold onto
Ab B F# B
For the hope, I have, in you
