Fred Neil - Bleecker & MacDougal
The Water Is Wide
(Capo 3th fret)
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
The water is wide
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
And I can not cross over
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) E7
Nor do I have wings to fly
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
Build me a boat
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
That could carry two
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) F(addG)
And both shall row
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
My love and I
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
There is a ship
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
And she sails the seas
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
She's burdened deep
E7
As deep can be
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
But not as deep
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
As the love I'm in
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
And I know not if
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
I sink or swim
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
But love is gentle
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
And love is kind
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
As to a jewel
E7
When first it's new
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
But love grows old
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
And it fades with time
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) F(addG)
And it fades away
Amaj7 Bm/A E7
Like morning dew
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
Build me a boat
Amaj7 Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
That 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
Amaj7
My love and I
