The water is wide
                Amaj7 (x02120@1) Bm/A (x04440@1)Amaj7(5th fr)  Bm/AAnd (x04440@1)I can not cross over
       Amaj7 Bm/A   Amaj7(5th fr)  E7
Nor do I           have wings     to fly
            Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) Bm/ABuild (x04440@1)me a boat
                 Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) Bm/AThat (x04440@1)could carry two
               Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) F(addG)
And both shall row
         Amaj7 (x02120@1)   Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) Bm/AMy (x04440@1)love and I
            Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) Bm/AThere (x04440@1)is a ship
                  Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) Bm/AAnd (x04440@1)she sails the seas
                Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) Bm/AShe's (x04440@1)burdened deep
            E7As (020130@1)deep can be
           Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) Bm/ABut (x04440@1)not as deep
                Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) Bm/AAs (x04440@1)the love I'm in
               Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) Bm/AAnd (x04440@1)I know not if
        Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
I sink or swim
              Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) Bm/ABut (x04440@1)love is gentle
            Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) Bm/AAnd (x04440@1)love is kind
         Amaj7  Bm/A Amaj7(5th fr) Bm/A
As to a jewel
                 E7When (020130@1)first it's new
                Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) Bm/ABut (x04440@1)love grows old
                  Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) Bm/AAnd (x04440@1)it fades with time
              Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) F(addG)
And it fades away
              Amaj7Bm/A E7Like (020130@1)morning dew
            Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) Bm/ABuild (x04440@1)me a boat

                Amaj7 (x02120@1)Bm/AAmaj7(5th (x04440@1)fr) F(addG)
And both shall row
            Amaj7F(addG) (x02120@1)My love and I
