The Blizzard

There's a blizard comming on, 
          C
how I'm wishing I was home,
       C                      
for my pony's lame, and he can 
        G
hardly stand.
       C               C7          
Listen to that norther sigh, if we 
F                    C
don't get home we'll die.
         G                        
But it's only seven miles to Mary 
Am
Ann's.
     G                        C
It's only seven miles to Mary Ann's.

        C                C7       
You can bet we're on her mind, for
      F           C
 it's nearly suppertime
         C                         
and I'll bet there's hot bisquets 
      G
in the pan.
        C                     C7  
Lord my hands feel like there 
                 F              C
froze, and there's a numbness in my 
toes.

That wind's howling and it seems 
         F              C
mighty like a woman's scream.
         C                         
And we'd best abe moving faster if 
   G
we can.

Dan just think about that barn, 
       F               C
with the hay so soft and warm.

It's only three more miles to Mary 
C
Ann's.

Dan get up you ornery cuss, or 
you'll be the death of us.
I'm so weary, but I'll help you if I
 can.
Alright dan, perhaps it's best, if 
we stop a while and rest.
For it's still a hundred yards to 
Mary Ann's.
It's still a hundred yards to Mary 
Ann's.

Late that night the storm was gone, 
the found him there at dawn.
He'd-a-made it but he just couldn't 
leave old Dan.
Yes they found him there on the 
plains, hands frozen to the reigns.
He was just a hundred yards form 
Mary Ann's.
