[Intro]
A E A

[Verse 1]
A
Here I stand by this chilly water waitin’ for my final call
E
Standing by the river looking beyond
A
Gazin’ toward the land of fadeless beauty o’er the surges rise and fall
E A
Standing by the river looking beyond

[Chorus]
A
Standing by the river waiting for the boatman
E
Listen to the music on the other shore
A
I can hear the angels singing out a welcome
E A
With my friends and loved ones who have gone before

[Instrumental]
A

[Verse 2]
A
Music from the land of endless glory fallin upon my listening ear
E
Standing by the river looking beyond
A
Faces of friends I often vision forms of loved ones oft appear
E A
Standing by the river looking beyond

[Chorus]
A
Standing by the river waiting for the boatman
E
Listen to the music on the other shore
A
I can hear the angels singing out a welcome
E A
With my friends and loved ones who have gone before

[Instrumental]
A E A
