[Intro]
A D C#m E7
[Chorus]
A D A D The water is wide, I can’t cross o'er. F#m D E D And neither have I the wings to fly. C#m F#m A D Build me a boat that can carry two, C#m E7 D A And both shall row, my love and I.
[Verse 1]
A D A D There is a ship and she sails the seas. F#m D E D She's laden deep, as deep can be; C#m F#m A D But not so deep as the love I'm in C#m E7 D A Asus4 A And I know not if I sink or swim.
[Verse 3]
A D A D O love is handsome and love is fine F#m D E D Bright as a jewel when first it's new C#m F#m A D but love grows old and waxes cold C#m E7 D A Asus4 A And fades away like the morning dew. C#m E7 D A Asus4 A And fades away like the morning dew.
[Chorus]
A D A D The water is wide, I can’t cross o'er. F#m D E D And neither have I the wings to fly. C#m F#m A D Build me a boat that can carry two, C#m E7 D A And both shall row, my love and I.
