[G]
Deep [C] water, ice and snow, [D] a thousand cattle [G] we had to go.
To get the cattle to [C] the other side, [D] you bet your life [G] we had to ride.
The railroad was but [C] a mile away, [D] but some men and horses [G] would die that day.
We held the herd [C] on a ridge close by, [D] as the north wind [G] blew the snowflakes by.
We were all chilled, [C] our bodies through, but [D] from cold or fear, [G] nobody knew.
We took a smoke [C] and watched it blow, [D] then slack your cinch, [G] we gotta go.
Deep [C] water, ice and snow, [D] with a thousand cattle [G] we had to go.
[C]
[D] [G]
I pointed the men, we [C] hit her fast, [D] but our luck by now was [G] fading fast.
That man was talking [C] from down below, [D] as my horse and I [G] was next to go.
My horse turned over [C] and I floated free, and [D] the waves were so high I [G] couldn't see.
Then my horse swam [C] by and I grabbed his tail, [D] he dragged me out [G] of that icy hell.
Deep [C] water, ice and snow, [D] with a thousand cattle [G] we had to go.
[C] [D]
[G] [E]
[A] I'll never forget [D] that terrible day [E] when strong men cried, [A] I heard some pray.
We crossed the cattle [D] to the other side, [E] just to save [A] a vain man's pride.
The hell I'd seen [D] was mighty cold, [E] the other kind is worse, [A] or so I'm told.
But I hope [D] when I have to go, [E] it ain't in deep water, [A] ice or snow.
In deep [D] water, ice and snow, [E] with a thousand cattle [A] we had to go.
To get the cattle [D] to the other side, [E] you bet your life [A] we had to ride.
