Notes: For the bass notes, its best to play triads of "root-5th-octave" (for C chords, C/G/C, for Am chords A/E/A, etc.) like in the recording. Also, I don't know the chords for the bridge, so you'll just have to make something up. Intro: C C/A C/F G (Play "Jingles Bells" melody using the C chord) Dm/C C It's coming on Christmas Dm/C C They're cutting down trees Dm/C C They're putting up reindeer Dm/C C And singing songs of joy and peace Am Oh I wish I had a river G I could skate away on Dm/C C But it don't snow here Dm/C C It stays pretty green Dm/C C I'm going to make a lot of money Dm/C C Then I'm going to quit this crazy scene Am I wish I had a river G I could skate away on F G I wish I had a river so long C F Em Dm I would teach my feet to fly C Oh I wish I had a river G Fm I could skate away on C I made my baby cry Dm/C C He tried hard to help me Dm/C C You know, he put me at ease Dm/C C And he loved me so naughty Dm/C C Made me weak in the knees Am Oh I wish I had a river G I could skate away on Dm/C C I'm so hard to handle Dm/C C I'm selfish and I'm sad Dm/C C Now I've gone and lost the best baby Dm/C C That I ever had Am Oh I wish I had a river G I could skate away on Fm G I wish I had a river so long C F Em Dm I would teach my feet to fly G Fm Oh I wish I had a river C I made my baby say goodbye Dm/C C It's coming on christmas Dm/C C They're cutting down trees Dm/C C They're putting up reindeer Dm/C C And singing songs of joy and peace Am I wish I had a river G I could skate away on Outro: Play "Jingle Bells" Melody using the G chord
