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