[Verse]
C                         G
This is where the journey ends,
F                    G
here where the river bends,
C                    G
Rough water down the line,
F                             G
and this ol' boat is past her prime.
       F                     G
We can still, make her come about,
Am           G
here in this wind,
F                 G
This is where the north
      C     G F G
meets south.

C                            G
This is where the east meets west,
F                    G
and this is where we are our best,
C                       G
Goodbye to the good ol' days,
F                   G
put all that stuff away.
      F                       G
Our belief is bigger than our doubt,
Am         G
time to begin,
F                 G           C     G
This is where the north meets south.
