RIVER

Joni Mitchell

Csus C

But it don't snow here

Csus C

It stays pretty green

Csus C

I'm going to make a lot of money

Csus C

Then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene

Am G

Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

Am Asus2 Am Asus2 G

Csus C

He tried hard to help me

Csus C

You know, he put me at ease

Csus C

And he loved me so naughty

Csus C

Made me weak in the knees

Am G

Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

	Verse 4

Csus C

I'm so hard to handle

Csus C

I'm selfish and I'm sad

Csus C

Now I've gone and lost the best baby

Csus C

That I ever had

Am G

Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

	Chorus 2

Csus G

I wish I had a river so long

C F Am Dm Dm7

I would teach my feet to fly---- whoa

C G F

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

C G C

I made my baby say goodbye

	Interlude

C Am G

	Verse 1, repeated

Csus C

It's coming on Christmas

Csus C

They're cutting down trees

Csus C

They're putting up reindeer

Csus C

And singing songs of joy and peace

Am G

Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

	Outro

G F Dm
