Biography:
Blanco White started as the solo project of neo-folk singer-songwriter and Londoner Josh Edwards (born 21 June 1991) in 2014. After studying guitar in Cádiz (Spain), and later the Andean instrument the charango in Sucre (Bolivia), Edwards’ aim was to begin bringing together elements of Andalusian and Latin American music alongside influences closer to home.
In early 2016 Blanco White released 'The Wind Rose' via Yucatan Records, a self-produced debut EP.

[Intro]
Dm C F C Am
Dm F C Am Dm
F C
I left a sign with a candle
Am Dm
In the streetlight that shone below
F
Where through the night
C Dm
The people dance in linen and smoke
Bb C Dm
I still remember her song in my head
Am
Each palm in time
Bb
Every face in that light
C Dm
As their mouths bellowed
[Melody]
Dm F Am Dm
Dm F Am Dm
F
Now they tell me she's just vanished
C Am Dm
Some other place by the sea
F
But to me she was banished
C Am Dm
By herself not by me
Bb
And though I still remember
C Dm
The streetlights are low
Am
Now dull in the night
Bb
And the dance has gone quiet
C Dm
But the sea still bellows
[Melody]
Dm F Am Dm
Dm F Am Bb C
Dm Bb C
Dm Bb
F Dm Bb
See the island on fire
C Dm Bb
And the towers align;
C Dm Bb
Built in silos of sea
C Dm Bb
Underneath every street
C Dm Bb
Lily spoke of a city's bones
C Dm Bb Dm
An ancient rubble of time and stone
Bb Am
Where the walls tremor under the sky
Bb Am
Covered day after day by the tide
Bb
Could I save them if I tried?
C Dm
If only I could
F Gm
C Dm
We shine our light across the ocean
Gm
A Troy this city has burned
C Dm
We shine our light across the ocean
Gm
A fire on ships will return
C Dm Gm
We shine our light
C Dm Gm
We shine our light
C Dm Gm
We shine our light
