It was late at [G] night in the open road
speeding [E] like a man on [C] the run
a lifetime [Em]
spent [Am] preparing for [D] the journey
[Em] He is closer now [G] and the search is on reading [E] from a map [C] in the mind
Yes, there's the [Am] ragged hill and there's the boat [D] on the river
And [Em] when the rain came [D] down
He [Em] heard a wild dog howl
[D] There [C] are voices in the night voices out [G] of sight
[C]
Too many men have first
[B]
[Em]
[C] [D] Surprise [Em] until
[G] he gets [D] you to the other [Em] side
[D] [B]
[D] [Em]
In the rolling mist [G] then he gets on board now, [E] there'll be no turning [C] back
Beware that [Am] hunted home at [D] the rudder rudder
[Em] And then the lightning [G] flashed and the thunder roar people [E] calling out [C] his name's name's name
[Em] Dancing bones like [Am] Gavin and I'm all [D] on the water and then [E] the ferryman [D] said
[Em] There is trouble ahead
[D] [E] [C] So you must pay [G] me now
[C]
You must pay [Em] me now
[C] Still that voice From [E] the

Don't even think twice
Don't pay the ferryman
Until he gets you to the other [F] side

Thank you very much
The last concert you gave in Holland in Ahoy, Rotterdam
Your voice sounded most beautiful
And the songs were perfect
speeding [E] like a man on [C] the run
