The Water is Wide
The Seekers
[C] The water is wide, [F] I can't cross [C] o'er
And neither [Am] have I [F] wings to [G7] fly.
Build me a [Em] boat that can carry [Am] two, [F]
And both shall [C] row, [G7] my love and [C] I.
A ship there [C] is, [F] and sails the [C] sea,
She's loaded [Am] deep, [F] as deep can [G7] be
But not so [Em] deep as the love I'm [Am] in,
[F]I know not [C] how [G7] I sink or [C] swim.
When love is [C] young, [F] and love is [C] fine
It's like a [Am] gem [F] when first it's [G7] new.
But love grows [Em] old and waxes [Am] cold,
[F]And fades a[C]way [G7] like the morning [C] dew.
[C] The water is wide, [F] I can't cross [C] o'er
And neither [Am] have I [F] wings to [G7] fly.
Build me a [Em] boat that can carry [Am] two, [F]
And both shall [C] row, [G7] my love and [C] I,[F]
And both shall [C] row, [G7] my love and [C] I.
