Am Asus2 G Fmaj7 E
πΈ Verse 1:
Am Asus2 G Fmaj7 E
Annan water You loom so deep and wide
Am Asus2 G Fmaj7 E
I would cross over If you would stem the tide
Am Asus2 G Fmaj7 E
Build a boat That I might ford the other side
Am Asus2 G Fmaj7
To reach the farther shore where my true love lies

In wait for me

In wait for me
E Am Fmaj7
In wait for me
E Am A
in wait for me
πΈ Verse 2:
Am Asus2 G Fmaj7 E
Oh, gray river Your waters ramble wide
Am Asus2 G Fmaj7 E
The horses shiver And bite against the bri - dle
Am Asus2 G Fmaj7 E
But I will cross If mine own horse is pulled from me
Am Asus2 G Fmaj7
Though my mother cries that if I try I sure
E Am Fmaj7
Will drowned be
E Am Fmaj7
Will drowned be
E Am Fmaj7
Will drowned be
E Am A
Will drowned be
πΈ Chorus:
D Dm A F#m
But if you calm And let me pass

So calm your waves And slow the churn

And you may have my precious bones on my return

Her amber ring

Her amber ring
E Am Fmaj7
Her amber ring
E Am A
Her amber ring
