https://youtu.be/lOGgG-wEDHA
This is based on Happy Traum's version of the song, which you can find at
"Basic Arranging Techniques that Every Guitarist Should Know - Video 1". I
simplified the chords in this tab so that it's easier to see the chord
progression.

A7 - D --- G --- D --- D --- .. .... .... .... ....
Bm --- G --- A --- A --- .... .... .... ....
F#m --- G --- Bm --- G --- .... .... .... ....
A --- A --- D --- D - .... .... .... ..
[Verse]
A7 - D --- G --- D --- D --- The water is wide, I can not cross over
Bm --- G --- A --- A --- And neither have I wings to fly
F#m --- G --- Bm --- G --- Build me a boat that will carry two
A --- A --- D --- D - And both shall row, my love and I
[Verse]
A7 - D --- G --- D --- D --- A ship there is and she sails the sea
Bm --- G --- A --- A --- And she’s loaded deep, as deep can be
F#m --- G --- Bm --- G --- But not so deep as this love I’m in
A --- A --- D --- D - I know not how I sink or swim
[Verse]
A7 - D --- G --- D --- D --- Oh love is gentle and love is kind
Bm --- G --- A --- A --- And love’s a jewel when first it’s new
F#m --- G --- Bm --- G --- But when it’s older, it waxes colder
A --- A --- D --- D - And it fades away like summer dew

[Verse]
A7 - D --- G --- D --- D --- I lean my back against an oak
Bm --- G --- A --- A --- Thinking it was a trusty tree
F#m --- G --- Bm --- G --- But first it bended, then it broke
A --- A --- D --- D - As did my own false love to me
[Verse]
A7 - D --- G --- D --- D --- The water is wide, I can not cross over
Bm --- G --- A --- A --- And neither have I wings to fly
F#m --- G --- Bm --- G --- Build me a boat that will carry two
A --- A --- D --- D - And both shall row, my love and I
