VERSE 1:

             C       F            C
The water is wide, I cannot cross o'er
            Am              G
And neither have I wings to fly
          C   Am               C
Give me a boat that will carry two
    F          C   G            C
And both shall row, my love and I

VERSE 2:

                        F         C
A ship there is and she sails the sea
             Am                G
She's loaded deep, as deep can be
           C   Am               C
But not so deep as the love I'm in
  F        C G          C
I know not if I sink or swim

VERSE 3:

               F              C
Down in the meadows the other day
            Am                    G
A-gathering flowers both rich and gay
            C      Am               C
A-gathering flowers for the red and blue
  F      C      G                C
I little thought what love could do

VERSE 4:

             F              C
I put my hand into one soft bush
             Am                 G
Thinking the sweetest flower to find
             C   Am              C
I pricked my finger right to the bone
      F        C        G        C      G  C  G
And I left the sweetest flower behind

VERSE 5:

  C                    F       C
A love is handsome and love is kind
         Am                    G
Gay as a jewel when first it's new
              C   Am                 C
But when it's old and it grows quite cold
       F      C  G                 C
And it fades away like the morning dew
