  B minorBm    D MajorD  B minorBm E minorEm  G+G      D MajorD  G+G D MajorD
The water is wide    I can?t cross o'er

And neither have I wings to fly

And both shall row my love and I

Verse 1

   G+G  D MajorD  B minorBm   E minorEm    D MajorD  Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD
There is a ship and she sails the seas

She's laden deep  as deep can be
  Asus2Asus2 E minorEm F# minorF#m B minorBm   G+G    D MajorD G+G D MajorD
But not so deep as the love I'm in
 F# minorF#m   B minorBm  G+G    D MajorD  Dsus4Dsus4 Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD
I know not if I sink or swim

Bright as a jewel when first it's new
  Asus4Asus4 E minorEm  F# minorF#m D7D7    D7sus4D7sus4 G+G
but love grows old and waxes cold
E minorEm    F# minorF#m    A augmentedA  A7A7   D MajorD  Dsus4Dsus4 Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD
And fades away like the morning dew.
