Drifting With The Tide

Lyrics: Traditional
Music: Traditional

Playd by the Jerry Garcia Acoustic Band. Thanks to Matt Schofield for checking the lyrics.

As my boat draws near the harbor
Knowing soon that you'll be mine
But if another has you darling
I'll go drifting with the tide

Chorus
I have crossed the great wide ocean
I have waited for the time
But if another has you darling
I'll go drifting with tide

A long, long time has passed my darling
Since that night you made the vow
I know my heart would break with sorrow
If you should say it's over now

[chorus]

I'm in love with you my darling
And I'm praying you'll be mine
But if you change your mind my darling
I'll go drifting with tide

[chorus]
