The Blizzard Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
There's [D]a blizzard comin' on,
how I'm [G]wishin' I was [D]home
For my pony's lame and he
can't [Bm]hardly [A]stand
Listen [D]to that Norther sigh,
if we [G]don't get home we'll [D]die
But it's [A]only seven miles to Mary An[Bm]n
[D]It's onl[A]y seven miles to Mary Ann
[D]

[Verse 2]
[Bm]
You can [D]bet [A]we're [D]on her mind
'cause it's [G]nearly supper [D]time
And I'll bet there's hot
biscuits in [A]the pan
Lord, my [D]hands feel like their froze,
there's [G]a numbness in my [D]toes
But there's [A]only five more
miles to Mary Ann
[Bm]It's only [A]five more miles to Mary Ann
[D]

[Verse 3]
That wind's howlin' and it seems
mighty [G]like a woman's [D]screams
We best be movin' faster if [A]we can
Dan, [D]just think about that barn with
that [G]hay so soft [D]and warm
It's [A]only three more miles to Mary [Bm]Ann
It's [A]only three more miles
to Mary An[D]n

[Verse 4]
[D]Well, [A]Dan[D], get up you[A] ornery cuss[D]
[G]or you'll be the death of us[D]
Well, I'm so weary but I'll
help ya if [Bm]I can[A]
[D]Well, all right Dan,
perhaps it's best [G]that we stop a while [D]and rest
[A]For it's still a hundred
yards from [Bm]to Ann
It's [A]still a hundred yards to Mary Ann
[D]

[Verse 5]
Well, late that night the storm was gone and
[G]they found him there [D]at dawn
Well, he'd a made it but he just
couldn't leave old [A]Dan
[D]Yes, they found him there on the plains
with his [G]hands froze to [D]the reins
And he was [A]just a hundred
yards from Mary [Bm]Ann
He was [A]just a hundred
yards from Mary Ann
[D]
