Bring me a Boat - Kate Rusby

[Intro] 
A  D  A  D
 
D          A        E           A
Bring me a  boat to cross to my dear
  D          A              F#m           D
I stand here alone, with my sweetheart so near
              A       E              A
Bring to me a boat to cross o'er the Tyne
        D          A           E             A
For its deep murky waters part his heart and mine
 
|[Chorus] 
|        D             A      F#m         A
|And the Tyne it flows on and  out to the sea
|     D         A             Bm           D
|If a boat I am  granted then  safe let me be
|                A       E            A
|And gently I'll go, for  gently I'll row
|   D          A              E           A
|As gently you breathe as you ebb and you  flow
|  
| A   D A   D
 
D              A          E          A
Does he know I stand each day on the  shore
        D             A      F#m           D
Does he know I'd give all to  see him once more
                  A        E              A
Does he know I've wept ten thousand times o'er
    D           A          E         A
And is he still waiting as he was be- fore

[Chorus]

D              A         E            A
The boatman he wants the gold I can't give
D              A            F#m         D
My parents are poor so I've  nothing to give
        A          E             A
Only my  heart and that will not float
   D            A            E          A
So please don't  deny me and bring me a  boat

[Chorus]
