Version 1 Version 2F Am A# Many rivers to cross Edim A# C F But I can't seem to find my way over F Am A# Wandering I am lost Edim A# C F As I travel along the white cliffs of Dover Many rivers to cross And it's only my will that keeps me alive I've been licked, washed up for years And I merely survived because of my pride CHORUS: A# F And this loneliness won't leave me alone A# F It's such a drag to be on your own A# F C Dm C My woman left and she didn't say why A# C Well I guess I have to try Many rivers to cross But just where to begin, I'm playing for time There have been times I find myself Thinking of committing some dreadful crime REPEAT FIRST VERSE CHORUS (from The Best Of, 2001)
