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

[Verse 1]
[F]Comin' on [C]Christmas,
they're [F]cuttin' down [C]trees
They're [F]puttin' up rein[C]deer
and singin' songs of joy and [G]peace
Oh, I [Am]wish I had a river
I could [G]skate away on
But [F]it don't snow [C]here, it [F]stays pretty [C]green
I'm gonna [F]make a lot of mon[C]ey
then I'm gonna quit this crazy [G]scene
Oh, I [Am]wish I had a river
I could [G]skate away on

[Bridge 1]
I [F]wish I had a river so [G]long
I [C]would teach my [G]feet to

Oh, I [C]wish I had river
[G]I could skate away on[F]

I made my baby cry

[Verse 2]
He [F]tried hard to help [C]me,
you know, he [F]put me at [C]ease
And he [F]loved me so [C]naughty
made me weak in the [G]knees
Oh, I [Am]wish I had a river
I could [G]skate away on
I'm [F]so so hard to han[C]dle
I'm [F]selfish and I'm [C]sad
Now I've gone and [F]lost the best ba[C]by
that I [G]ev- er had
Oh, I [Am]wish I had a river
I could [G]skate away on

[Bridge 2]
I [F]wish I had a river so [G]long
