A
Through the days of passing years I walk
 C#m7
Alone with all my thoughts
D
Softly suffocating as the
Bm7           E7
numbers climb

   A
I imagine better days
       C#m7
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
      C#m7
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
C#m7                                    F#m
All our friends who love to swim below
And they say
D
Hey
     E
It's just a simple rowboat made for
C#m7                              F#m
All who simply need a place to go
So I say
D
Hey
  E
I hope you will take me to
  C#m7        C#7           F#m
A destination far away from home
And they say
D
Hey
E
Hop aboard and join us in a
D              C#m7        A
Journey to wherever we may go

[Verse 2]
    A
The vessel found a distant shore
   C#m7
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
    C#m7
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
C#m7
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
C#m7
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
C#m7                                   F#m
All our friends who love to swim below
And they say
D
Hey
     E
It's just a simple rowboat made for
C#m7                              F#m
All who simply need a place to go
So you say
D
Hey
E
I hope you will take me to
  C#m7        C#7           F#m
A destination far away from home
And they say
D
Hey
E
Hop aboard and join us in a
D              C#m7        A
