Em                            A
There's a little girl out lyin' on her own
 F#m                 Bm
She's got a broken heart
Em                             A
She's not the kind to take you down for long
F#m                    Bm
She knows and plays it smart
        Em           A       F#m            Bm
(Ah--) And if she's comin' she's showed no mark
 Em             A            F#m          Bm   
She's heard no whistle blowin' from the dark
Em               A          F#m            Bm
She feels like leavin' and she don't know why
Em                       A 
Without no bridges she's trapped, so I sigh

D               G              D               G 
Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide
D              G           D             G
Don't try denyin' livin' on the other side
     A
All your life 
         G    C    G
You were on your own

Bridge
G Em F#m  Bm 


Bm                 G         D 
If you want you can ride my train
F#m                                  D
And soon forget the reason that you're leaving
G                        Em7   A    D
You'll lose yourself and then sometime
 D            D7              G
Maybe even save yourself some grievin'

Em7 A   F#m7 Bm Em7 A7 D
Oh, oh, oh, oh


Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide
Don't try denyin' livin' on the other side
Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide
Don't try denyin' livin' on the other side
Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide
Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide
Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide ...
