Chris de Burgh - Dont pay the ferryman

^EmI was late at night on the ^Gopen road ^GSpeeding like a ^Dman on the ^Crun A ^Clifetime ^C/Bspent ^Ampreparing ^Gfor the ^Djourney ^EmHe is closer now, as the ^Gsearch is on ^GReading from a ^Dmap in the ^Cmind ^CYes, there's that ^C/Brugged hill and ^Amthere's a ^Gboat on the ^Driver. And when the ^Emrain came down, ^D He heard a ^Emwild dog howl. ^D There were ^Cvoices in the ^Gnight. (don't do it) ^CVoices out of ^Gsight. (don't do it) ^CToo many men have failed ^Bbefore; whatever you do,

^EmDon't ^Dpay the ^Emferryman ^EmDon't ^Deven ^Cfix a price ^{D Em}Don't ^Dpay the ^Emferryman Until he ^Cgets you to the ^Dother ^Emside

^EmIn the rolling mist as he ^Ggets on board ^GNow there'll be no ^Dturning ^Cback ^CBeware that ^C/Bhooded old ^Amman at ^Gthe ^Drudder ^EmAnd the lightning flashed and the ^Gthunder rolled And ^Gpeople calling o^Dut his ^Cname ^CAnd dancing ^C/Bbones that ^Amjabbered and ^Gmoaned on the ^Dwater. And then the ^Emferryman said ^D "there is ^Emtrouble ahead ^D

^CSo you must pay me ^Gnow" (don't do it) ^CYou must pay me ^Gnow (don't do it) ^CAnd still that voice came from ^Bbeyond: whatever you do,

^EmDon't ^Dpay... ^DThe ^EmFer^Emry-^Emman!
