Age Old Blue - Alela Diane

Capo 1st Fret

Am Dm
The sea beneath the cliff is the blue in my mother's eyes

G
That came from the blue in her mother's eyes

C Em
Thrown on down the line

Am Dm
By our family who worked the field on borrowed land above the ocean

G C Em
My family worked the field on borrowed land

Chorus

Dm C G
Higher hills do not provide

Dm C G
For hearts born of coral and moss

Dm C G
Where rain wont flow beyond our stream

Dm C G
And water is captive to the well

(Repeat after each chorus:)

Am
Oh-ohh

Dm
Oh-Ohh

G
Oh-Ohh

C Em
Oh-oh-oh

(Same chords as first verse)

There was a gentleman,

I've always known his children's songs

Blue eyes were hardened by the war

But still he went on singing

Night can't hide a man

When his eyes are tearing

The night can't hide his cries

There's only a few of us left

Higher hills do not provide

For hearts born of coral and moss

Where rain wont flow beyond our stream

And water is captive to the well

I've known that age old blue eyes in homes with sirens' tombs
