                          "The River Is Wide"
                           (Knight - Admire)

Like at least a couple other Grass Roots hits, someone else did this first -
in this case the Forum, whose 1967 semi-hit version I much prefer.

Intro:

	 F                         Eb/F            F
	 v  v  v  v    v  v  v  v    v  v  v  v    v  v  v  v
	-/-----------|-x--x--x--x--|-/-----------|-/--------X--
	               ^^^^^^^^^^ bass drum                 ^ snare

Verse 1:

	Bb         Eb/F    Bb        Eb/F

	-/-----/-/---/---|-/-----/-/---/---

	Eb           /Bb   Eb             /Bb   Eb          /Bb  Eb    /Bb
	   The lightning flashed, ...
	 F       /C  F       /C       F            /C  F
	Then fell a drop of rain ...

Chorus:

	                      Ebm7                   Ab
	[1: Let the river get wide], ...
	[2: And the river gets wide]
	              Dbmaj7                    Bbm
	The water runs deep as ...
	                   Ebm7                 Ab
	So baby, don't you fight ...
	1:   Fm7/Bb [hold 2 bars]
	2:   Fm7/Bb [hold 6 bars]
	3-5: Fm7-5/Cb  Bb
	   To me

Verse 2:

[repeat chorus 3X; fade 3rd time]
