Deep Water Ice And Snow by Don Edwards Guitar Chords

D           G
Deep water, ice and snow
           A                D
And with a thousand cattle, we had to go
                         G
To get the cattle to the other side
        A                       D
You can bet your life we had to ride

D                    G
Now the railroad was but a mile away
    A                   D
But some men and horses would die that day
                      G
We held the herd on a ridge close by
   A                   D
As the north wind blew the snowflakes by

D                        G
Well we were all chilled our bodies thru
    A                  D
But from cold or fear, nobody knew
                         G
So we lit us a smoke and we watched her blow
    A                   D
Now slack your cinches, we gotta go

D           G
Deep water, ice and snow
           A               D
And with a thousand cattle we had to go

D                          G
Well I pointed the men and we hit her fast
    A                   D
But our luck by now was a fadin fast
                      G
That man was a talkin from down below
   A                   D
As my horse and I were next to go

D                             G
Well my horse turned over and I floated free
    A                      D
But the waves was so high, I couldn't see
                          G
Then my horse swam by and I grabbed his tail
   A                    D
He dragged me outa that icy hell

D           G
Deep water, ice and snow
           A               D
And with a thousand cattle we had to go

D                      G
Well I'll never forget that terrible day
     A                   D
When grown men cried and I heard some pray
                      G
We crossed the cattle to the other side
     A         D
Just to save a vain mans pride

D                           G
Well the hell I've seen was mighty cold
    A                     D
But the other kinds worse or so I'm told
                 G
Well I just hope when I have to go
   A                    D
It ain't in deep water, ice or snow

D           G
Deep water, ice and snow
           A               D
And with a thousand cattle we had to go
                     G
To get the cattle to the other side
    A                           D
You can bet your life we had to ride
