[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
