River's Too Wide Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]The river's too wide now
for crossing
The waters rush too loud for talking
We never build bridges for walking
'cause the river's too [G]wide[D]

[Verse 2]
A gentle [G]stream once
flowed [D]between us
But love could [G]cross it [D]eas[G] il[D]y
'Til stormy [G]skies brought bitter [D]teardrops
And made that stream a raging [A]river
Come [G]between you and [D]me[G][D]

[Verse 3]
The river's too [D]wide now for crossing
The waters rush too loud for talking
We never build [G]bridges for [E]walking
[G]There's no getting to the other [D]side

[Verse 4]
The river's too [D]wide now for crossing
The current goes too deep for mending
It looks like an [A]unhappy ending
'Cause the [G]river's too [D]wide

[Verse 5]
Good lessons [G]learned are [D]not [G]forgot[D]ten
We gave up [G]love to [D]save [G]our [D]pride
Next time I'm [G]faced with rising wa[D]ters
I'll build a bridge of love
and [A]kindness
Reaching [G]to the other side
[D][G]

[Verse 6]
[D]
The river's too wide now for crossing
The waters rush too loud for talking
We never build [G]bridges for [D]walking
[E]There's no [G]getting to the other [D]side

[Verse 7]
The river's too [D]wide now for crossing
The current goes too deep for mending
[A][G][D][G][D]
[A][G][D][E]
It looks like an [B]unhappy ending
'Cause the [A]river's too [E]wide
