The Girl On The Jersey Ferry

	  		

Verse 1:

C F Right from the start let's get one thing straight C F When it comes to the heart you can't legislate Am G Funny the things a fellow will remember sometimes C F Like the scene from the movie Citizen Kane C F One short moment with me remains Am G Funny the things a fellow will remember sometimes C F When Bernstein says now you take me C F Stuck in my mind one memory Am G I was crossing over to Jersey on the ferry C F As we pulled out another ferry pulled in C F A second between them was all it could have been Am G And on it was a girl waiting to get off C G A white dress is what she had on C F One second later she was gone Am G She never saw me at all,she carried a white parasol C F That was in eighteen ninety six C F And I bet a month hasn't gone by since Am G That I haven't thought of that girl on the Jersey ferry
Instrumental: C F C F Am G (x4)

Verse 2:

C F Now it's nineteen forty one C F Nigh half a century been and gone Am G And I still remember that girl with the white dress on C F A fleeting glimpse of chances missed C F Destiny or fates cruel twist Am She'd never even know that I exist, G How about that C F Time is the ticket and the years the toll C F Did I mention she carried a white parasol Am G Funny the things a fellow will remember sometimes
Outro: C F C F Am G (x8)
