	        D6/F#       B7            E7         Edim  E7 
I wish I could come back to you, Dear, 
          G   G7       A7 A7/13-     D    Cdim    G/E     A7 
'Cause I know     that you want me to; 
    D6/F#     B7          E7   Edim      E7             
But too much water's run under that old bridge  
        G G7          A7   A7/C#     G Fdim     D    A7 
There's too     many rivers      between me and you 
Refrain: 
        D6/F#      B7       E7         Edim    E7 
There's too many rivers to cross, Dear; 
 G        A7     A7/13-       D     Cdim     G/E      A7 
Too many dreams have been lost, 
             D6/F#    B7    
And there's too many nights  
          E7    Edim       E7              
That I've turned and I've tossed  
        G   G7          A7    A7/C#    G    Fdim    D     A7 
There's too     many rivers      to cross. 
     D6/F#             B7       E7   Edim  E7 
Now don't think for a moment I blame only you; 
     G   G7               A7   A7/13-       D    Cdim    G/E     A7 
We both     peeled the fruit     on the vine. 
         D6/F#           B7          E7     Edim    E7       
And when you try to put love back together, 
        G G7        A7 A7/C#        G     Fdim       D    A7  
There's always a few      little pieces you can't find. 
Refrain: 
        D6/F#      B7       E7         Edim    E7 
There's too many rivers to cross, Dear; 
 G        A7     A7/13-       D     Cdim     G/E      A7 
Too many dreams have been lost, 
             D6/F#    B7    
And there's too many nights  
          E7    Edim       E7              
That I've turned and I've tossed  
    G   G7         A7    A7/C#    G    Gdim    D 
There's too     many rivers      to cross.
