The Blizzard Chords

Lyrics & chords

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

[Verse 1]
There's [C]a blizzard comin' on,
how I'm [F]wishin' I was [C]home
For my pony's lame and he
can't hardly [G]stand
Listen [C]to that norther' sigh,
if we [F]don't get home we'll [C]die
But it's [G]only seven miles to Mary [Am]Anne

[Verse 2]
It's [G]only seven miles to Mary [C]Anne
You [Am]can [C]bet we're on her mind,
for it's [F]nearly supper[C]time
And I'll bet there's hot
biscuits in the [G]pan
Lord, my [C]hands feel like they're [G]froze[C]
and there's a [F]numbness in my [C]toes
But it's [G]only five more
miles to Mary [Am]Anne

[Verse 3]
It's [G]only five more miles to Mary [C]Anne
[Am]That wind's [C]howlin' and it seems
mighty [F]like a woman's [C]screams
And we'd best be movin'
faster if we [G]can
Dan, just [C]think [G]about [C]that barn
with that [F]hay so soft and [C]warm
For it's [G]only three more
miles to Mary [Am]Anne

[Verse 4]
It's [G]only three more miles to Mary [C]Anne
Dan, [G]get [C]up you ornery cuss,
[F]or you'll be the death of [C]us
I'm so weary but I'll help you if I [G]can
All right [C]Dan, perhaps it's best that we
[F]stop [G]awhile [F]and res[C]t
For it's [G]still a hundred
yards to Mary Anne
[Am]

[Verse 5]
It's [G]still a hundred yeards to
Mary [C]Anne
Late that night the storm [F]was gone and
they found him there [C]at dawn
He'd- a made it but he couldn't
leave [G]ol' [Dm]Dan[G]
Yes, [C]they found him there on the plains,
his [F]hands froze to [C]the reins
He was [G]just a hundred
yards from Mary [Am]Anne
He was [G]just a hundred yards
from Mary [C]Anne
[Am]
