  			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#m Em 
'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#m Em 
'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 
But I've been licked, and washed up for years 
C         Bm         C  D               G 
    And I merely survive because of my pride 
(Many rivers to) Oh cross!
