It's a coming on Christmas, they're cutting down trees
You know, they're putting up reindeer [D] and singing songs [C] of joy and [Am] peace
Oh, I wish I had a river I could [G] skate away [C] on
[G] _
_ _ [C] But it don't snow here, it stays pretty green
I'm gonna make a lot of money, then I'm gonna quit this crazy [Am] scene
I wish I had a river I could skate [G] away on
I _
_ _ _ _ [F] wish I had a river [A] so [G] long that I would [C] teach my feet [F] to [Em] fly
[Dm] _ _ _ _ _
_ Oh, I [C] wish I had a river _
[G] _ I could skate [F] away _ on
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] Baby, _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ I'm [C] so hard to handle
Sometimes I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby that I _ had
[Am] Oh, I wish I had a river I [D] could [G] skate away on
He _ _ _
[C] tried hard to help me, he put me at ease
Lord, he loved me so good, he made [D] me weak [C] in the [Am] knees
Oh, I wish I had a river I could [G] skate away on
_ Oh, [F] I wish I had a river [G] so _ long [C] I would teach my feet [F] to [Em] fly
[E] Oh, _ [Dm] _ _ [Am] _ [Dm] _ _
[C] I wish I had _ [G] _ a river I could skate [F] away on _ _ _ _
I made my baby [C] say _ goodbye
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ It's _ _ [C] a coming on Christmas, they're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer and singing songs of joy and [Am] peace
