[Verse]
Em A
There's a little girl out lyin' on her own
F#m Bm
She's got a broken heart
Em A
She's not the kind to take you down for long
F#m Bm
She knows and plays it smart
Em A F#m Bm
(Ah) And if she's comin' she's showed no mark
Em A F#m Bm
She's heard no whistle blowin' from the dark
Em A F#m Bm
She feels like leavin' and she don't know why
Em A
Without no bridges she's trapped, so I sigh
D G D G
Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide

Don't try denyin' livin' on the other side
A
All your life
G C G
You were on your own
[Bridge]
G Em F#m Bm
Bm G D
If you want you can ride my train
F#m D
And soon forget the reason that you're leaving
G Em7 A D
Lose yourself and then sometime
D D7 G
Maybe even save yourself some grievin'
Em7 A F#m7 Bm Em7 A7 D
Oh, oh, oh, oh
[Chorus]
D G D G
Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide
D G D G
Don't try denyin' livin' on the other side
D G D G
Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide
D G D G
Don't try denyin' livin' on the other side
D G D G
Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide
