Chords for Eric Carmen "Boats Against The Current" U.S. TV 1977

[Em] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [G] _ _ [D] _ _ _
[Em] _ _ [Bm] _ _ [C] I _ [Bm] _
_ [D] _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ know it's over, _
_ _ _ [Bm] I know it's [D] over, _ _ _ just [C] going through [G] the motions, but [Am] the silence there
[B] pushes words [Em] apart, _ _
[Bm] _ and it [G] knows it's breaking my heart.
[C] _ _ _ _ [G] I was a _ dreamer, _ _ _ [Bm] you were a _ dreamer, _ but [C] perfection is [G] consumed, _ and [Am] it seems we're all [B] human after _ [Em] all. _
_ [Bm] _ And the [G] love [C] we're taking with all of us, _ and that [Bm] tomorrow we're [Em] all music, [Bm] _ _ [C] _ _
we're [D] gonna _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ [D] feel it.
[Em] And when the hymn of [C#] paradise _ _ [G] _ _ _
is a [Bm] sunset, _ we're [C] both _ against the current to the [G] _
end.
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ [C] We _ [G] were older, _ _ _ _ [Bm] we were colder, _ _ [C] so with _ disregard [Bm] to who [G] shall, [Am] while we cling to our [B] illusions once [Em] again,
_ _ [Bm] _ [G] and we keep [C] remembering when _ _ _ _ [G] seasons are changing, _ _ [Bm] I'll _ make it through _ [C] _ _
_ [G] the day, _ [Am] so time not _ [B] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ to waste, [C] and sleep away.
_ _ It's all but [Bm] tomorrow, we're [Em] all music, [G] _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ [D] and it's [C] every _
_ _ [C#] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [C] _
day, _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ [D] we're all _ [Bm] _ _
_ [Em] music, _ [G] _ _ [C] _ _
we're gonna [D] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ [G] _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [C#] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
[G] _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ feel [Em] _ _
_ [D#] it.
_ [G] _ _ [C#] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
And in the [Bm] _ _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ _
[G] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ [C] ashes we'll make, _ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] we're both against the current _ [G] to the end.
