[INTRO:]
Am7
[1.]
C7sus4 F C7sus4 F
The water is wide, I can't cross over
Dm Bb Csus4
And neither have I wings to fly
C C/Bb Am7 Cm7 Cm7/F Bb(addC) F/A
Build me a boat that can carry two
Gm7 Am7 C7sus4 F Fsus4
And both shall row, my love and I
[2.]
F Bb/D C7/E F Dm7 F/A Gm7
There is a ship and she sails the sea
F Dm7 Bb(addC) Gm7 Gm7/C
She's loaded deep as deep can be
C C/Bb Am7 Cm7 Cm7/F Bbmaj9 F/A
But not so deep as the love I'm in
Gm7 Am7 Gm7/C F Gm7/C
I know not how I sink or swim
[3.]
F Bb/D C7/E F Dm7 Bb(add)C F/A Gm7
Oh, love is handsome and love is fine
F Dm7 Bb(addC) Gm7 Gm7/C
The sweetest flower when first it's new
C C/Bb Am7 Cm7 Cm7/F Bbmaj9 F/A
but love grows old and waxes cold
Gm7 Am7 Gm7/C Dm7 C
and fades away like summer dew
[SOLO :]
Bb(addC) F/A-Gm7 F-C/E Dm7-F/C Bb(addC)-Gm7 Gm7/C
[4.]
C C/Bb Am7 Cm7 Cm7/F Bbmaj9 F/A
Build me a boat that can carry two
Gm7 Am7 Gm7/C Dm7 C
And both shall row, my love and I
Bb(add)C Am7 C7sus4 F Bb/F F
And both shall row, my love and I
