Blue Poles

Em   C G    B         Em     
Mother as I write the sun 
C      F
dissolves
           Em   C   G         B
Blood life streaming cross my hand
Em        C      F
And these words, these words
Em   C     G         B
Hope dashed immortal hope
Em   C        F
Hope streaking the canvas sky


[Chorus]
G    Em    D          C        
Blue poles infinitely winding, 
Am   G      C    D
as I write, as I write[x2]


[Verse 2]
Em C     G         B
We joined the long caravan
Em     C       F
Hungry dreaming going west

Em       C   G        B
Just for work just to get a job
Em           C
And we never got lucky
F
We just forged on
Em      C   G            B
And the dust the endless dust
       Em        C      F
Like a plague it covered everything
Em  C   G         B
Hal fell with the fever
    Em       C  F
And mother I did what I could


[Chorus]
G    Em    D          C        
Blue poles infinitely winding, 
Am   G      C    D
as I write, as I write[x2]

[Verse 3]
Em C     G              B
We prayed we prayed for rain
  Em    C     F                  
I never wanted to see the sun 
   G Em D C Am G C D
again
Em     C      G            B
All my dresses you made by hand
   Em     C   F
We left behind on the road
Em  C   G      B
Hal died in my arms
   Em     C  F
We buried him by the river


[Chorus]
G    Em    D          C        
Blue poles infinitely winding, 
Am   G      C    D
as I write, as I write[x2]
D  G
I write
