The Water Is Wide Chords

Capo: 3rd fret
Key: Eb

C F Em  G
 
             C    F
The water is wide
              C
I can't cross over
            Am   F
And neither have
           G
I wings to fly
           Em   Gm
Build me a boat
               F   Dm
That can carry two
               Em  G
And both shall row
            C
My love and I
 
           C    F
There is a ship
                  C
And she sails the sea
             Am   F
She's loaded deep
            G
As deep can be
           Em   Gm
But not so deep
                F  Dm
As the love I'm in
           Em  G
I know not how
          C           D(hammer)
I sink or swim
 
           C       F
Oh love is handsome
            C
And love is fine
             Am     F
The sweetest flower
                G
When first it's new
               Em
But love grows old
          C    F
And waxes cold
           Em  G
And fades away
     F      C
Like summer dew
 
C F C Am F G
 
           Em
Build me a boat
               C   F
That can carry two
               Em  G
And both shall row
   F        C
My love and I
               Em  G
And both shall row
   F        C
My love and I
