The Water Is Wide Chords & Lyrics - Glen Campbell

Intro [D] [Bm] [G] [A] [D] [Dsus4] [Dsus2] [D]

[CHORUS 1]

The [Bm]water is [D]wide [Bm] [Em] I [G]can’t cross [D]o'er [G] [D]
And [D/C#]neither [Bm]have [G]I [Em]wings to [A]fly [Asus4] [A]
Build [Asus4]me [Em] a [F#m]boat [D7]that can [D7sus4]carry [G]two
[Em]And both shall [F#m]row my [A]lo[A7]ve and [D]I [Dsus4] [Dsus2] [D]

[VERSE 1]

There [G]is a [D]ship [Bm]and she [Em]sails the [D]seas [Dsus4] [D]
She's [Bm]laden [Em]deep [G] as [Em]deep can [A]be [Asus4] [Asus2] [A]
But[Asus2] not [Em]so [F#m]deep [Bm]as the [G]love I'm [D]in [G] [D]
I [F#m]know not [Bm]if I [G]sink or s[D]wim [Dsus4] [Dsus2] [D]

[VERSE 2]

Oh l[Bm]ove is [D]handsome [Bm] [Em] and [G]love is [D]fine [G] [D]
Bri[D/C#]ght as a [Bm]jewel [Em]when first it's [A]new [Asus4] [A]
but [Asus4]love g[Em]rows [F#m]old a[D7]nd waxes [D7sus4]cold [G]
[Em]And fades [F#m]away like [A]the [A7]morning [D]dew.[Dsus4] [Dsus2] [D]

[CHORUS 2]

The [Bm]water is [D]wide [Bm] [Em] I [G]can’t cross [D]o'er [G] [D]
And [D/C#]neither [Bm]have [G]I [Em]wings to [A]fly [Asus4] [A]
Build [Asus4]me [Em] a [F#m]boat [D7]that can [D7sus4]carry [G]two
A[Em]nd both shall [F#m]row my [A]lo[A7]ve and [D]I [Bm] [G] [A] [D] [Dsus4] [Dsus2] [D]
