Intro 1
(D major) (G major) (D major) (A major) (B minor)
(G major) (D major)
Verse 1
(D major) I am the shaker
you're my (G major) hammer (D major) in the frost
(A major) Don't you sing of (B minor) rivers now
the (G major) ones I'll never (D major) cross
And if I sing along will that
(G major) river make (D major) me wise
(A major) Craft another (B minor) melody we'll
(G major) holler at sun (D major) rise
Verse 2
There's a (A major) buckskin
highway headed north
Your (B minor) choice is east or west
At that (A major) lonely river town where
the (B minor) barfly knows you best
I'll never (D major) know
Verse 3
why we
(G major) came (D major) to Wise River
(A major) Where the snow can fall like
(B minor) cannonballs
And that (G major) lonesome wind blows (D major) bitter
Verse 4
Now if you're (D major) weary,
they don't (G major) mind you passing (D major) through
Those (A major) seats are for the (B minor) cowboys though
They (G major) ain't for me or (D major) you
It was the wrath of a man near one
(G major) hundred (D major) years ago
Can't you (A major) hear the ghosts of (B minor) miners wail
In the (G major) hell they dug below
(D major)
Verse 5
Now (A major) one thing marks the reason
and another (B minor) 's on my mind
That (A major) one thing lasts forever and that's
the (B minor) darkness in their eyes
I'll never (D major) know why we
Verse 6
(G major)
came (D major) to Wise River
(A major) Where the snow can fall like
(B minor) cannonballs
And that (G major) lonesome (D major) wind blows bitter
Interlude 1
(G major) (D major)
(A major) (B minor) (G major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) (A major) (B minor) (G major) (D major)
Verse 7
(G major) Something colder is growing
me older than (B minor) (G major) she (B minor)
(G major) She could share this,
an heiress of copper (B minor) an d wheat
And if they (A major) forgive their
folly in the (G major) fields
We may find her there asleep (D major)
Verse 8
Oh well (D major) they lost it all,
one (G major) shot at fortun (D major) e's fame
Only the (A major) rivers are left for
(B minor) dig ging boys
And they'll (G major) fly to jump your (D major) claim
It ain't the storms that blow that'll
(G major) make you dread the (D major) road
It's the (A major) distance that grows (B minor) heavy now
be (G major) neath the weight of (D major) snow
Verse 9
(D major) I'll always know why we (G major) came to (D major)
(A major) (B minor) (G major) (D major)
(G major) Wise (D major) River
Where the (A major) snow can fall like (B minor) can
nonballs (G major) (D major) (A major) (B minor)
And the (G major) lonesome wind blows (D major) bitter
