River

[Intro] C  G9

[Primera Parte]

      C
It's 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
          G9
I could skate away on
    C
But it don't snow here

It stays pretty green

I'm gonna make a

Lot of money

Then I'm going to quit
             Am
This crazy scene

Oh, I wish I had a river
          G9
I could skate away on

I made my baby cry

      C
He tried hard to help me

You know, he put me at ease

And he loved me so naughty

Made me weak in the knees
       Am
Oh, I wish I had a river

I could skate away on
C9              C
I'm so hard to handle
C9                   C
I'm selfish and I'm sad
                   C9
Now I've gone and lost

The best baby

That I ever had

I could skate away on

I made my baby say goodbye
