Edwards Don - Deep Water Ice And Snow guitar tab

This is a great song. The verses are more of a talkin part, then sing the

chorus lines

Deep Water, Ice and Snow 4/4 Don Edwards;

(C) Deep water, (F) ice and snow

And with a (G) thousand cattle, (C) we had to go

To get the cattle to the (F) other side

You can (G) bet your life we had to (C) ride

(C) Now the railroad was (F) but a mile away

But (G) some men and horses (C) would die that day

We held the herd on a (F) ridge close by

As (G) the north wind blew (C) the snowflakes by

(C) Well we were all chilled (F) our bodies thru

But (G) from cold or fear, (C) nobody knew

So we lit us a smoke and (F) we watched her blow

Now (G) slack your cinches, (C) we gotta go

(C) Deep water, (F) ice and snow

And with a (G) thousand cattle (C) we had to go

(C) Well I pointed the men and (F) we hit her fast

But (G) our luck by now was (C) a fadin fast

That man was a talkin (F) from down below

As (G) my horse and I were (C) next to go

(C) Well my horse turned over and (F) I floated free

But (G) the waves was so high, (C) I couldn't see

Then my horse swam by and (F) I grabbed his tail

He (G) dragged me outa that (C) icy hell

(C) Deep water, (F) ice and snow

And with a (G) thousand cattle (C) we had to go

(C) Well I'll never forget (F) that terrible day

When (G) grown men cried and (C) I heard some pray

We crossed the cattle (F) to the other side

Just (G) to save a (C) vain mans pride

(C) Well the hell I've seen was (F) mighty cold

But (G) the other kinds worse (C) or so I'm told

Well I just hope (F) when I have to go

It (G) ain't in deep water, (C) ice or snow

(C) Deep water, (F) ice and snow

And with a (G) thousand cattle (C) we had to go

To get the cattle to (F) the other side

You (G) can bet your life we had to (C) ride
