Verse 1:
            A
Through the days of passing years I walk
 Dbm7
Alone with all my thoughts
D
Softly suffocating as the
Bm7           E7
numbers climb


   A
I imagine better days
       Dbm7
Taking solace in the hope of gently
D
Conquering the vastness of the
Bm7                  E7
Oceans where I float
            A
Among the endless waters crashing
      Dbm7
Suddenly appears a boat
   D
To my surprise a cry for help
 Bm7               E7
Emerges from my throat

And I say

Chorus 1:
D
Hey
  E
I hope your boat is not destroying
Dbm7                                    Gbm
All our friends who love to swim below

And they say
D
Hey
     E
It's just a simple rowboat made for
Dbm7                              Gbm
All who simply need a place to go

So I say
D
Hey
  E
I hope you will take me to
  Dbm7        Db7           Gbm
A destination far away from home

And they say
D
Hey
E
Hop aboard and join us in a
D              Dbm7        A
Journey to wherever we may go

Verse 2:
    A
The vessel found a distant shore
   Dbm7
Forgotten and remote
   D
We mapped the maze of hidden trails and
Bm7                        E7
Mountains capped with snow
    A
The sick are never hungry now
    Dbm7
The air is filled with sound
     D
When heavy weather comes we run to
Bm7                 E7
Tunnels underground
  A
I found a place among the souls who
Dbm7
Offered me a rope
D
Thankful for the day my journey
Bm7                  E7
Came across the boat
             A
So if you're feeling cast away and drifting
Dbm7
Off to parts unknown
     D
Keep scanning the horizon for a
Bm7                  E7
Vessel will be shown

And you'll say

Chorus 2:
D
Hey
  E
I hope your boat is not destroying
Dbm7                                   Gbm
All our friends who love to swim below

And they say
D
Hey
     E
It's just a simple rowboat made for
Dbm7                              Gbm
All who simply need a place to go

So you say
D
Hey
E
I hope you will take me to
  Dbm7        Db7           Gbm
A destination far away from home

And they say
D
Hey
E
Hop aboard and join us in a
D              Dbm7        A
Journey to wherever we may go
