Chords with lyrics
Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)
C
It's coming on Christmas
C
They're cutting down trees
C
They're putting up reindeer
G
And singing songs of joy and peace
Am G
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on
C
But it don't snow here
C
It stays pretty green
C
I'm gonna make a lot of money
G
And quit this crazy scene
A G
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
F G
I wish I had a river so long
C F G
I would teach myself to fly
C G A
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
F G C
I made my baby cry
C
He tried hard to help me
C
You know, he put me at ease
C
And he loved me so naughty
G
Make me weak at the knees
A G
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
C
I'm so hard to handle
C
I'm selfish and I'm sad
C
Now I've gone and lost the best baby
G
That I ever had
A G
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
F G
I wish I had a river so long
C F G
I would teach myself to fly
C G
I wish I had a river
A
I could skate away on
F G C
I made my baby say goodbye
