Alas I Cannot Swim Cifras

Put a capo on relative to the pitch of your voice. I found it was fitting on 3rd.
 
 
[Verse 1]
          G                            C            G
There's a house across the river, but alas I cannot swim
      G                              D
And a garden of such beauty that the flowers seem to grin
          G                            C            G
There's a house across the river, but alas I cannot swim
     G                              D            G
I'll live my life regretting that I never jumped in
 
C G C G C G G
 
 
[Verse 2]
          G                         C                 G
There's a boy across the river with short black curly hair
   G                           D
He wants to be my lover, and I want to be his peer
          G                          C            G
There's a boy across the river, but alas I cannot swim
  G                        D           G
I never will get to put my arms around him

[Verse 3]
          G                              C         G
There's a life across the river that was meant for me
  G                                D
Instead I live my life in constant misery
          G                            C      G
There's a life across the river, but I do not see
    G                              D        G
Why I should please those who will never be pleased?

[Bridge]
         Em                           C          Em
There is gold across the river, but I don't want none
         Em                           C          G
There is gold across the river, but I don't want none
        Em                C               G
Gold is fleeting, gold is fickle, gold is fun
        Em                D               G
Gold is fleeting, gold is fickle, gold is fun
 
 
[Outro Verse]
         G                            C          G
There is gold across the river, but I don't want none
        G                          D
I would rather be dry than held up by a golden gun
       G                     C                    G
Saying work more, earn more, live more, have more fun
       G                     C                    G
Saying work more, earn more, live more, have more fun
       G                     C                    G
Saying work more, earn more, live more, have more fun
 
G G C G
