This song is amazing. Been playing it quite a bit.
The song has been tabbed by me BY EAR. This is no book and no machine,
just me!
The pattern’s pretty accurate I think. PLEASE leave feedback, Ill use
every correction I get!
Josh might play this with bar-chords but I dont. So get over it.
Anyways, enjoy and go buy the album!

and when the Cboatman comes to ferry Fmaj7me away to where we Amall belong
CWe all Fcross when we were Dmfeeling Amlost it's just the Ctime
Could Cterry Fcry the day her Dmlover Amdied she recogCnized
Because you Cgave Fher a life of Dmreal Amlove it's no surCprise
The Cnights are Flong but the Dmyears are Amshort when your aClive

and when the Cboatman comes to ferry Fmaj7me away to where we Amall belong
