Blue guitar
I once knew a man
Showed me the sleight of hand
In the blink of an eye he danced across the strings
He played a song I'd never heard
Poignant and absurd
And to this day it leaves me wondering
How I wish tommorrow I were fishin'
Boy Igot a mission, to shake it rattle and roll
Oh now just use your intuition
You'll get less competition, from the clock upon the wall
You are what you are
You dream what you dream
Play on your blue guitar for me
Play me serenade
A simple masquerade
Play on your blue guitar for me
Was he real or make-believe
Or someone to deceive
That time is just a folly we can't see
You only know one song
Play it right or play it wrong
'Cause the truth is always somewhere in between
You and I - we can't change the weather
And we're all in this together so let the stong wind blow
Oh now things will be much better
If you don't become a prisoner to the reason you should know
You are what you are
You dream what you dream
Play on your blue guitar for me
Play me a serenade
A lover's masquerade
Play on your blue guitar for me
(let's play it boys)
How I wish tommorrow I were fishin'
Boy Igot a mission, to shake it rattle and roll
Oh now just use your intuition
You'll get less competition, from the clock upon the wall
You are what you are
You dream what you dream
Play on your blue guitar for me
Play me serenade
Red wine and lemonade
Play on your blue guitar for meBlue guitar,
Fortune of my ways
Making of my days.
New chord,
Counting up the ways
Happiness is lazy.
If you don't know the song,
If you can't put the words to the tune,
Tell the rhyme from the reason,
What should it matter
To the fool or the dreamer?
New hope,
Travellers in a storm,
Finding love is warm.
New day,
The world has just begun,
Our eyes have seen the sun.
If you don't know the way,
If you can't see the wood for the trees,
Taste the wine from the water,
Well, what should it matter,
To the fool or the dreamer?
