Standard (EADGBE)

 The water is wide

 I can't cross over

 And neither have

 I wings to fly

 Build me a boat

 That can carry two

 And both shall row

 My love and I

 There is a ship

 And she sails the sea

 She's loaded deep

 As deep can be

 But not so deep

 As the love I'm in

 I know not how

 I sink or swim

 Oh love is handsome

 And love is fine

 The sweetest flower

 When first it's new

 But love grows old

 And waxes cold

 And fades away

 Like summer dew

 Build me a boat

 That can carry two

 And both shall row

 My love and I

 And both shall row

 My love and I
