The Water Is Wide

(Capo 3th fret)

             Amaj7  Bm/A  Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/AThe water is wide
                Amaj7   Bm/A  Amaj7(5th fr)  Bm/AAnd I can not cross over
       Amaj7 Bm/A   Amaj7(5th fr)  E7Nor do I           have wings     to fly
            Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/ABuild me a boat
                 Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/AThat could carry two
               Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) F(addG)And both shall row
         Amaj7     Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/AMy love and I
            Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/AThere is a ship
                  Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/AAnd she sails the seas
                Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/AShe's burdened deep
            E7As deep can be
           Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/ABut not as deep
                Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/AAs the love I'm in
               Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/AAnd I know not if
        Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/AI sink or swim
              Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/ABut love is gentle
            Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/AAnd love is kind
         Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/AAs to a jewel
                 E7When first it's new
                Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/ABut love grows old
                  Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/AAnd it fades with time
              Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) F(addG)And it fades away
              Amaj7 Bm/A E7Like morning dew
            Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/ABuild me a boat
                  Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/AThat could carry two
                Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) F(addG)And both shall row
            Amaj7 F(addG)My love and I
            Amaj7 F(addG)My love and I
            Amaj7My love and I
