The water is wide folk song lyrics
[Chorus]
The[D] water is wide I[G] cannot cross[D] over,
And[Bm] neither have I wings to[A7] fly,
Build[D] me a[F#m] boat that will[G] carry two,
And both[A7] shall roam,my[D] love and I.
[1]
A ship there is and she sails the sea
Sailing as deep,as deep can be
But not so deep as the love im in
And I know not how to sink or swim
[2]
I leaned my back against some young oak
Thinking she was a trusty tree
But first she bent,and then she broke
And thus did my false love to me
[repeat chorus]
