[Verse 1]
Cm               G
When one day the ferryman comes
    Bb                       Fm
And sets off from the known shores
     Cm                     G
They say beneath these waves
Eb                  G
Pure hearts have no fear


[Verse 2]
Cm              G
Reminiscently writes your invoice
Bb                   Fm
Counting virtues and flaws
   Cm             G
Oh boy, you never knew
   Eb             G
It all adds up to now


[Bridge]
N.C.
If he sets sail now
N.C.
He'll make it to heaven or hell
N.C.
Before dawn

[Verse 3]
Cm                   G
Across on this ocean everyone goes
      Bb              Fm
Moves into a better home
    Cm           G
The ugly old cocoon
   Eb                  G
Is bound to crack open soon


[Bridge]
N.C.
If he sets sail now
N.C.
He'll make it to heaven or hell
N.C.
Before dawn

[Chorus]
Cm            G
  What can be said?
Cm           Bb
  And what believed?
    Eb             Fm         G6  G
You say that it is scientific knowledge
Cm                 G
Now the blind will see?
Cm              Bb
  The deaf will hear?
Eb          Fm            G6 G
Everyone is happy like on ho-li-
Cm                   G
-days You've written all
Cm             Bb
  Now you must go
   Eb                Fm                       G6  G
It all just puts you way back back to the the question
C5
"why?"
