[Intro 1]
[C][C][Am][Am]
[F][F][G][G]

[Verse 1]
It's [C]coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
[Am]Oh, I wish I had a river
I could [G]skate away on
But [C]it don't snow here
It stays pretty green
I'm going to make a lot of money
Then I'm going to quit this cra- zy scene
[Am]I wish I had a river
I could skate [G]away on

[Chorus 1]
I [F]wish I had a river so [G]long
I [C]would teach my feet [F]to [Em]fly
[Dm]Oh, I wish[C] I had a river
[G]I could skate awa[F]y on[F]
I [F]made my ba[C]by [C]cry
[Am][Am][G][G]

[Verse 2]
He [C]tried hard to help me
You know, he put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees
Oh, I wish I [Am]had a river
I could [G]skate away on
[C]I'm so hard to handle
I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby
That I ever had
Oh, I wish [Am]I had a river
I could [G]skate away on

[Chorus 2]
I [F]wish I had a river so [G]long
I would [C]teach my feet [F]to [Em]fly
[Dm][Dm]
Oh, I wish [C]I had a river
[G]I could skate awa[F]y on[F]
I [F]made my baby [C]say [C]goodbye
[Am][Am][G][G]

[Verse 3]
It's [C]coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
[Am]I wish I had a river
I could [G]skate away on
[G][G]
