Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][Em][F][E]
[F][D][G]
[F][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]Many rivers to [Em]cross[F]
But I [E]can't seem to [F]find [G]my way ove[C]r[G]
[C]Wandering I am [Em]lost[F]
As [E]I travel a[F]long t[G]he white cliffs of Dove[C]r[G]

[Verse 2]
[C]Many rivers to [Em]cross[F]
And it's [E]only my [F]will [G]that keeps me ali[C]ve[G]
I've been [C]licked, washed up for [Em]years[F]
And I [E]merely sur[F]vive [G]because of my [C]pride

[Bridge 1]
[F]Oh, that loneliness won't lea[C]ve me alone
[F]It's such a drag to be on [C]your own
[F]My woman left me
and she [C]didn't say [Am]why[G]
[F]Well I guess, I have to try[G]

[Verse 3]
[C]Many rivers to [Em]cross[F]
But just [E]where to be[F]gin,
[G]I'm playing for[C] tim[G]e
There'll be [C]times I find my[Em]self[F]
Thinking [E]of commit[F]ting
[G]some dreadful[C] crime

[Outro 1]
Yes, I've got [C]many rivers to [Em]cross[F]
But I [E]can't seem to [F]find [G]my way ove[C]r[G]
[C]Wandering I am [Em]lost[F]
As [E]I travel a[F]long t[G]he white cliffs of Dove[C]r[G]
[Fade out]
