[Dm] [Gm]
[F] [Bb] [Eb]
[Bb] It's
[F] [F]
coming [Bb] on Christmas, cutting down trees, and putting up reindeer, singing songs of

I wish I had a river I could [F] skate away on, [Bb] but it don't snow here, it

I'm gonna make a lot of money, then I'm gonna quit this crazy [Gm] scene,
I wish I had a river I could [F] skate away on.

I made my [Bb] baby cry, he [Gm]
[C] [Gm]
told

And he loved me so
naughty, [Cm] made me weak in the knees.
[Gm] Oh, I wish I had a river I could [F] skate away on.
But
I'm so hard [Bb] to handle, [C] I'm selfish [Bb] and I'm sad, now I've lost the best baby that I know.
[Gm] I wish I had a river I could skate [F] away on.
Oh, [Eb] I wish I had a river so [F]
