The Blizzard
by Harlan Howard
As performed by Chris LeDoux

D                                       G             D
Thereâs a blizzard cominâ on    How Iâm wishinâ I was home
                                        A
For my ponyâs lame and he canât hardly stand
       D                             G                    D
Listen to that Norther sigh    If we donât get home weâll die
         A                     Bm    A                    D
But itâs only 7 miles to Mary Ann    Only 7 miles to Mary Ann

D                                         G            D
You can bet weâre on her mind   ÎCuz itâs nearly suppertime
                                         A
And Iâll bet thereâs hot biscuits in the pan
        D                                        G              D
Lord my hands feel like their froze    Thereâs a numbness in my toes
            A                          Bm    A                         D

But thereâs only 5 more miles to Mary Ann    Only 5 more miles to Mary
Ann

                                        G                D
That windâs howlinâ and it seems Mighty like a womanâs screams
                               A
We best be movinâ faster if we can
          D                               G              D
Dan, just think about that barn with that hay so soft an warm
     A                           Bm         A                          D

Itâs only 3 more miles to Mary Ann     Itâs only 3 more miles to Mary
Ann


Spoken:

D                                     G               D
Dan, get up you ornery cuss or youâll be the death of us
                                         A
Well, Iâm so weary but Iâll help ya if I can
                D                              G                D
Well, all right Dan, perhaps itâs best that we stop a while and rest
      A                                Bm
Weâre still a hundred yards from Mary Ann
     A                              D
Itâs still a hundred yards to Mary Ann

D                                                 G                  D
Well late that night the storm was gone and they found him there at dawn

                                                    A
Well, heâd a made it but he just couldnât leave old Dan
           D                                     G                  D
Yes, they found him there on the plains with his hands froze to the
reins
       A                               Bm
He was just a hundred yards from Mary Ann
       A                                D
He was just a hundred yards from Mary Ann
