[Intro]
G G7 Em C D7 G C G
[Verse 1]
G D7 G C G The river is wide, I can-not see Em D7 Nor do I have light wings to fly G G7 Em C Build me a boat that can carry two G D7 G C G And both shall row, my love and I
[Verse 2]
G D7 G C G My love is like the lof-ty tree Em D7 It shudders fierce and then sways free G G7 Em C If it should fade when the summer's through G D7 G C G She'll bloom again when the spring shines through
[Verse 3]
G D7 G C G When love is young, then love is fine Em D7 Just like a gem when first it's new G G7 Em C But love grows old and waxes cold G D7 G C G And fades a-way like the morn-ing dew
[Verse 4]
G D7 G C G The river is wide, I can-not see Em D7 Nor do I have light wings to fly G G7 Em C Build me a boat that can carry two G D7 G C G And both shall row, my love and I
