The Water Is Wide
Traditional
arr. James Taylor, D. Grolnich @ 1991

[ Capo III in F ]

[ D A4 ]
The water is wide [ D ]
I can't cross over [ G D ]
And neither have [ D/C# Bm ]
I wings to fly [ Em A4 A ]
Build me a boat [ F#m ]
That can carry two [ D7sus D7 Bm G6 ]
And both shall row [ F#m A ]
My love and I [ D ]

There is a ship [ G A D ]
And she sails the sea [ G D ]
She's loaded deep [ D/C# Bm ]
As deep can be [ Em A4 A ]
But not so deep [ F#m ]
As the love I'm in [ D7sus D7 Bm G6 ]
I know not how [ F#m A ]
To sink or swim [ D ]

Oh love is handsome [ G A D ]
And love is fine [ G A D ]
The sweetest flower [ D/C# Bm ]
When first it's new [ Em A4 A ]
But love grows old [ F#m ]
And waxes cold [ D7sus D7 Bm G6 ]
And fades away [ F#m A ]
Like summer dew [ Bm ]

[instrumental] [ G D ] [ D/C# Bm ] [ G A4 A ]
Build me a boat [ F#m ]
That can carry two [ D7sus D7 Bm G6 ]
And both shall row [ F#m A ]
My love and I [ Bm G6 ]
And both shall row [ F#m A ]
My love and I [ D ]
