Life In A Paper Boat

G C G A boat made of paper, it set sail with me C G D And oh, how I've grown weary G C G That boat of shame it took me, now I'm far from free C D G And oh, won't you stay near me? D Em Hope it bloomed eternal C There upon the promised land D G C D Will it wither now or will I feel my feet upon the sand? G C G This bundle that I carry is worth more to me than life C G D And oh, how I've grown weary G C G There's only me to hold her now that I'm no more a wife C D G And oh, won't you stay near me? D Em Hope it bloomed eternal C There upon the promised land D G C D Will it wither now or will I feel my feet upon the sand? G C G An ancient land I've left behind, in ruins now lies she C G D And oh, how I've grown weary G C G I must spell a new life now with walls to keep her free C D G And oh, won't you stay near me? D Em Hope it bloomed eternal C There upon the promised land D G C D Will it wither now or will I feel my feet upon the sand? G C G My heart is in my hand now we are on the open sea C G D And oh, how I've grown weary G C G Thank God, she won't remember this, whatever it may be C D G And oh, won't you stay near me? D Em The orange sun was burning C On the boat where we all stand D Em And hope it bloomed eternal C There upon the promised land D G C D Will it wither now or will I feel my feet upon the sand?
