[Verse 1]
[G][Dsus4][D][G][D][G][Dsus4][D][G]
[D]It's com[G]ing on Christmas
[D]The[Bm]y're [D]cutting
down trees
[G]They're putting up reindeer
And [D]singing [G]songs [A]of joy and [D]peace
[A]Oh [Bm]I wish I had a river
I [A]could skate away on

[Verse 2]
[G]But it don't snow her[D]e[G]
It stays [D]pretty green
I'm gonna make a lot of money
And [G]quit this [D]crazy scene
[Bm]I wish I had a river I could
[A]skate away on

[Verse 3]
[G]
I wish I had a river [A]so [D]long
I would teach [G]myself [D]to fly
[Bm][Em][D]
I wish I had [A]a river I could skate
[G]away [Gsus2]on[G]
I made [D]my [G]baby [A]cry

[Interlude 1]
[D][Bm][A][D][A]

[Verse 4]
He [D]tried hard to help me
You know, he put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty
Make me weak at the knees
[Bm]I wish I had a river I could
[A]skate away [D]on[A]

[Verse 5]
I'm so [D]hard to handle
[Dsus4]I'm selfish and I'm [D]sad
[Dsus4]Now I've gone and l[D]ost the best baby
[G]That [D]I ever had
[Bm]I wish I had a river I cou[A]ld skate away on

[Verse 6]
[G]I wish I had a river so l[A]ong
[D]I would teach mys[G]elf to [D]fly[A][Em]
[D]I wish I had a[A] river
I could skate [G]away on
I made my baby say good[D]bye
