The Jamestown Ferry

Key D
Transpose-5
Caponone
Chorus
She just Dcaught the Jamestown Ferry,
It's not a Bmhot day in January,
Like she Gsaid it'd be Aif she ever left Bmme.
A case of Dgone was all she carried,
As she Bmgot on the Jamestown Ferry,
And she Gsaid that gone was Aall she'd ever Dbe.
Verse 1
I didn't Dthink that she'd leave me,
After Bmsayin' how much she needs me.
But the Gfact still remains I'm Asittin' here all alone.
Missin' the Dlovin' of my baby
Lord, it's aBmbout to drive me crazy.
She was the Gsweetest piece of Aheaven I've ever Dknown.
Chorus
Verse 2
As I walk through that valley,
Of honky tonks and bars,
I remember how she'd hold me and comfort me with talk.
She didn't cuss with every breath,
she had a soothing Southern drawl,
Made me feel like a man through it all.
Chorus
