Intro:  Em C G Am - Em C G C

 G
I´m getting near my destination
 C             G
A slow train crawl
 G
Like a fool i nearly miss the station
C               G
It´s grown so small
      G
Not betting on an easy landing
C           D
Out of the blue
  G                            D                     C  G
These shuttered houses and a clock still standing at 1962


  G              Em   D  C                G
Waiting for the ferry,   tickets in their hand
  G                     D                    Am
Good people that were never out of sight of land
                 Em   D  C                G
Waiting for the ferry,   ticket in their hand
G                      D                  Am
Good people that you knew would never understand 


           C      G
And we´re all on board
  C                   G
It´s not very far to ride
       C                 G
Your river is not like Jordan
       C
We´ll meet on the other side


Bridge: Em C G Am - Em C G C


 G
A stony church where lovers lingered 
 C            G
In years gone by
     G
The hand of god still points a finger
  C         G
Across the sky
    G
A stony road to no salvation
 C            D
Who sheads a tear
 G                             D             C             G
I think that both of us were looking for a shortcut out of here


  G              Em   D  C               G
Waiting for the ferry,   tickets in our hand
  G                     D                    Am
Good people that were never out of sight of land
                 Em   D  C              G
Waiting for the ferry,   ticket in our hand
G                      D                  Am
Good people that you knew would never understand 


 Em                                      D
Could´ve brought you whiskey, could´ve brought you wine
     C                           Am          D      
The only thing i can´t bring is time, time, time 


           C      G
And we´re all on board
  C                   G
It´s not very far to ride
       C                 G
Your river is not like Jordan
       C
We´ll meet on the other side
