THE WATER IS WIDE
British folk song
Joan Baez
Key: F

8   -8  7  -8   8  -8  7   7  -6   6
The wa-ter is wide, I can-not get o’er  
7     -7  7   8  -8  -9-8 8
Neith-er have I wings to fly 
8    -8-9  9    -9  -8   8  7  -8
Give me a boat that can car-ry two 
8    7    -6     6
And both shall cross, 
6   -6   7    8  7
my true love and I 

I leaned my back against an oak  
Thinking it was a mighty tree  
But first it bent and then it broke  
So did my love prove false to me  

I put my hand to some soft bush  
Thinking the sweetest flower to find  
I pricked my finger to the bone  
And left the sweetestest flower behind  

Oh love is handsome and love is kind  
Gay as a jewel when first it is new  
But love grows old and waxes cold  
And fades away like the morning dew
