Now tonight's the night when the waters rise, and you're [D] groping in the [C] dark. _ _
_ _ _ [Em] Ticket takers count the men who [D] can afford the ark. _ _
[C] The ticket takers [G] will not board, the ticket takers are [C] tied. _ _ _
[Em] For five and change an hour to [D] count the passers [G] by. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Now they say [C] the sky's the limit, _ _ _ but the sky's about [C] to fall. _ _
_ _ And [Em] down come all them record books, [D] cradle and all. _ _ _
They say [G] before he bid it, that the boxer [D] felt no [C] pain. _ _ _ _ _
[Em] But somewhere there's a gambling [Bm] man with a [D] ticket in the rain.
[G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] And _ _ _ Marianne, I [A] know I'm your long shot.
[C] But _
[G] _ Marianne, [D] what else have you got?
_ _ I [C] am a [G] ticket taker, _ many tickets [D] have I torn. _
_ _ _ _ [Bm] I will be your [Em] ark, _ _ we will [D] float above the [G] storm. _ _ _ _ _

Many years have passed in this river town, I sail through many [C] traps. _ _
_ [Em] I keep a stock of weapons, should [D] society _ collapse.
_ I [C] keep a stock of [G] ammo, _ one of oil and one of [C] gold. _ _ _ _
[E] I keep a place for _ [B] Marianne, [D] soon she will [G] come home. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] Marianne, [D] I know I'm your long [G] shot.
[C] But _ _ [G] _ Marianne, what [D] else have you got?
_ _ [C] I am a [G] ticket taker, _ many tickets have I [C] torn.
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] And I will be your [Em] ark, _ _ we [D] will float above [G] the storm. _ _
