[Intro]
F G C F G C
[Verse 1]
F G C
He went outside in the rain and started to row
F G C
The boat kept filling up so the going was slow
F G C Am
He was a man without a dream, just couldn’t keep himself clean
F G C
The storm clouds turned to watch him go
[Verse 2]
F G C
He drifted along until he heard a sound
F G C
It was a child up in a tree afraid she’d drown
F G C Am
He offered her his hand, helped her understand
F G C
That he would take her to higher ground
[Refrain]
F C G
And they went on and on and on
F C G C
and they went on and on and on and on
[Verse 3]
F G C
The girl and the man floated into town
F G C
saw the red tops of stop signs with water all around
F G C Am
Concessions on the roof, white flags hung as proof
F G C
That inside there was life still to be found
[Verse 4]
F G C
They saw a dog swimming in the street
F G C
Holding his head high but getting weak
F G C Am
They pulled him in the boat and tried to dry his coat
F G C
And now the rescued souls numbered three
[Refrain]
F C G
And they went on and on and on
F C G C
and they went on and on and on and on
[Verse 5]
F G C
The sky shed it’s skin; the rain was done
F G C
The boat reached a hill; and there as one
F G C Am
They stepped onto dry land: the dog, the girl, the man
F G C
Took a breath and turned to face the sun
