[Intro]
D G D G D G A D N.C.
[Verse 1]
D G Standing by a riverside D A river so deep and so wide G Current's too strong for only one man A D I know because I tried
[Verse 2]
D I got eight oars - G Four on either side D Is there anybody with me G Eight hands four willing hearts A D Won't someone answer my plea
[Chorus]
G Well I got in the boat D I stayed afloat A D Some way across I was tiring G D Well I need someone to help me A D To get to the other side
[Verse 3]
D G Along came son of Alabama south D He said "I heard you calling G If you don't mind the colour of my skin A D I'll help you not to fall in"
[Verse 4]
D G Then suddenly Joe from out of Tokyo D "If my eyes don't make you nervous G I used to handle a junk back home" A D Said 'Can I be of service'
[Chorus]
G Well we got in the boat D We stayed afloat A D Halfway across we were tiring G D We got to row this boat together A D To get to the other side
[Guitar Solo]
D G A D G A D
[Verse 5]
D Two more oars G Only one seat left D One more person to lean on G A brotherhood boat to a land called home A D With our share of freedom
[Chorus]
G We got in the boat D Stayed afloat A D There's no need to be tiring G D We rowed this boat together A D Happiness meets the other side G D We rowed this boat together A D Happiness meets the other side G D We rowed this boat together A D Happiness meets the other side
