Another great song by Steeleye Span, this time Gay Woods takes over the lead vocals.

            C  F                C
There is a ship that sails the sea

              Am              G
It is loaded deep as deep can be.

            C           F       C
But not so deep as the love I'm in

            Am                G
That I know not if I sink or swim

C - F - C Am - G C - F - C Am - G

              C  F              C
The water is wide we cannot get o'er

             Am              G
And neither have I wings to fly.

           C  F                 C
Give me a boat that will carry two

                 G              C        
That boat shall row my love and I
