There is a ship and she sails the sea
Cmaj7 Am F G7 G7sus G7
She's load-ed deep, as deep can be
Em F Em
But not as deep as the love I'm in
Dm G7 G7sus G7 C
I know not if I sink or swim
F G7 C F C
I leaned my back against an oak
Cmaj7 Am F G7 G7sus G7
Thinking it was a trusty tree
Em F Em
But first it bent and then it broke
Dm G7 G7sus G7 C
Just as my love proved false to me
F G7 C F C
Oh, love is gentle, and love is kind
Cmaj7 Am F G7 G7sus G7
The sweetest flower when first it's new
Em F Em
But love grows old and waxes cold
Dm G7 G7sus G7 C
And fades away like the mornin' dew
F G7 C F C
The water is wide, I cannot get o'er
Cmaj7 Am F G7 G7sus G7
Neither have I the wings to fly
Em F Em
Give me a boat that can carry two
Dm G7 G7sus G7 C
And both shall row my love and I
