   I took myself a blue---------- ca - noe, 
        C       G    Dsus4      A
And I floated like a leaf----,
   A                G F    D   G          A
Dazzling, dancing, half----------  en - chanted, 
C           G     D        A
   In my merlin sleep---!


  F    G        Am7       F      G       Am7
Crazy was the feeling, restless were my eyes,
F     G         D                F                        E     E7
In - sane they took the paddles,    my arms, they para - lised-----!


   Am            C              D                F
So...  where to now St.Peter?  If it's true, I'm in your hands,
Am             C               D                 F
    I may not be a Christian, but I've done all one man can,
Am                           C          D                F
    I understand I'm on the road where all that was is gone,
    Am  Am7  C       D          F         G      D7sus4
So where to now, St.Peter? Show me which road I'm on,  which road I'm on!

   It took a sweet young fo----------reign gun, 
      C    G      Dsus4        A
This lazy life is short-----,
    A                 G F     D   G        A
Something for nothing al------------ways ending, 
C          G        D         A
   With a bad re - port----!


  F    G        Am7       F     G        Am7
Dirty was the daybreak, sudden was the change,
F       G             D             F                     E   E7
   In such a silent place as this,     beyond the rifle range---!


   Am            C              D                F
So...  where to now St.Peter?  If it's true, I'm in your hands,
