Introduction:
G Bm
Many rivers to cross
C Bm C D G
But I can't seem to find my way over
G Bm C
Wandering I'm lost
Bm C D G
As I travel along the white cliffs of Dover
G Bm
Yes I've got many rivers to cross
C Bm C D G
And it's only my will that keeps me alive
G Bm
'Cause I've been licked, washed up for years
C Bm C D G
And I merely survive because of my pride.
C G
And this lonliness won't leave me alone
C G
It's such a drag to be on your own
C G F#mEm
'Cuz my man left me and he didnt say why
C D
So I guess I'll have to cry.
G Bm
I've got many rivers to cross
C Bm C D G
But just where to begin, I'm playing for time
G Bm C
'Cuz there've been times I find myself
Bm C D G
Thinking of committing, a dreadful crime.
C G
And this lonliness won't leave me alone
C G
It's such a drag to be on your own
C G F#mEm
'Cuz my man left me and he didnt say why
C D
So I guess I'll have to cry.
