Chords

[Intro] F C Dm Bb F [Chorus]
F
The river's too wide now for crossing

      C          F
The waters rush too loud for talking

                 C
We never build bridges for walking

            Bb           F
'cause the river's too wide
[Verse 1]
            Bb                     F
A gentle stream once flowed between us

               Bb           F
But love could cross it easily

              Bb                    F
Till stormy skies brought bitter teardrops

                                C
And made that stream a raging river

Bb                    F
Come between you and me
[Chrous] The river's too wide now for crossing
       C     F
The waters rush too loud for talking

                  C
We never build bridges for walking

              Bb                 F
There's no getting to the other side
The river's too wide now for crossing
       C     F
The current goes too deep for mending

                   C
It looks like an unhappy ending

             Bb          F
'cause the river's too wide
[Interlude] F C Dm Bb F [Verse 2]
               Bb                 F
Good lessons learned are not forgotten

             Bb               F
We gave up love to save our pride

               Bb                  F
Next time i'm faced with rising waters

                                   C
I'll build a bridge of love and kindness

Bb                      F
Reaching to the other side
[Chorus] The river's too wide now for crossing
       C     F
The waters rush too loud for talking

                  C
We never build bridges for walking

              Bb                 F
There's no getting to the other side
The river's too wide now for crossing
       C     F
The current goes too deep for mending

                   C
It looks like an unhappy ending

             Bb          F
'cause the river's too wide
[Outro] Em C Bb
