Richard Shindell - Blue Divide


CAPO: 3rd Fret



INTRO: G   D   Em  G  C  D   G 

                D    Em
Once I tried to row
           G              C    D  G
'Cause you know I hate to fly
               D             Em
So I set out from the coast
                        C     D  Em
But got battered by the tide
                    A
As I glided back to shore
                  D
I raised an angry oar
    C                  G     D  G
And cursed that blue divide


            D            Em
As if it weren't enough
            G               C      D    G
To still be stranded on the wrong side
           D            Em
I landed in the surf
                     C      D    Em
When a breaker hit my blind side
                        A
And when my clothes had dried
                   D
I hung my head and cried
  C                G      Bm
Beside that blue divide


                    C             Bm
'Cause all that time I thought
              C            Bm
That you and I were lost
                   C
A toss, long fallen wide
       D       G      D C
In that blue divide
            D       G      D C   D  G
That endless blue divide


                   D            Em
So I climbed up o___n a dune
             G          C      D   G
And found Marconi with his radio
                  D            Em
He was looking kind of blue
                       C        D    Em
'Cause his antenna rusted long ago
                   A
And sitting on the cliff
                   D
We shared a handkerchief
    C             G      Em
Above that blue divide
                  A
I waved it in the hope
                     D
That you owned a telescope
           C                  G      Bm
That could pierce that blue divide


               C            Bm
I thought I was marooned 
                           C         Bm
'Til I caught sight of your balloon___
               C
Rising with the moon
           D       G      D C
Across that blue divide
            D       G      D C  
That endless blue divide
           D       G      D C
Across that blue divide
            D       G      D C  
That endless blue divide
           D       G      D C
Across that blue divide
            D       G     
That endless blue divide


OUTRO: D C    D G   (4x)
