[Verse]
G D Em Dm
I am the last conquistador,
C D C D
I am well meaning and intentions are earnest,
I am the first to document.
My route is new an my spirit enlightened,
[Bridge]
F Dm
I kept hold for your letters,
F Dm Em F
But maybe it would be better if they burn.
[Chorus]
Am G F
Blueberries and dreams,
Em Dm
Burst at the seams,
Dm Em F G
My route was clear but a cloud fell upon me,
Am G F
Blueberries and dreams,
Em Dm
Hollowed and squeezed,
Dm Em F G
My route was clear but a cloud fell upon me,
Dm Em F G
Stepped into darkness only stars left to guide me
[Verse 2]
G D Em Dm
Still I'm the last conquistador,
C D C D
I keep on going, Though the going ain't easy.
G D Em Dm
And now my mind's in farrago,
C D C D
All jumbled up, in the promise of empire.
[Bridge]
F Dm
I'm still searching for Beulah,
F Dm Em F
And one day I will hold her in my arms.
[Chorus]
Am G F
Blueberries and dreams,
Em Dm
Burst at the seams,
Dm Em F G
My route was clear but a cloud fell upon me,
Am G F
Blueberries and dreams,
Em Dm
Hollowed and squeezed,
Dm Em F G
I'm so delirious I'm oblivious to previous,
Dm Em F G
Hallucinations of a fool, that deceived us.
Dm Em F G
A combination of disease and confusion.
Am G F G
My whole life's work, was just an illusion.
Dm Em F G
Am G F
Blueberries and dreams,
Em Dm
Burst at the seams,
Dm Em F G
My route was clear but a cloud fell upon me,
Am G F
Blueberries and dreams,
Dm Em F G
A combination of disease and confusion.
Am G F G
My whole life's work, was just an illusion.
the whole song of the song repeats the pattern of the first couple of verses - no middle 8
This is nonetheless one of the best songs ever written.
