There's a blizard coming on, how I'm wishing I was home,

       C                              G
for my pony's lame, and he can hardly stand.

       C               C7          F                    C
Listen to that norther sigh, if we don't get home we'll die.

         G                        Am
But it's only seven miles to Mary Ann's.

     G                        C
It's only seven miles to Mary Ann's.
[Verse 2]
        C                C7             F           C
You can bet we're on her mind, for it's nearly supertime

         C                               G
and I'll bet there's hot biscuits in the pan.

        C                       C7                   F              C
Lord my hands feel like they're froze, and there's a numbness in my toes.

         G                            Am
But it's only five more miles to Mary Ann's.

     G                            C
It's only five more miles to Mary Ann's.
[Verse 3]
            C              C7           F              C
That wind's howling and it seems mighty like a woman's scream.

         C                           G
And we'd best be moving faster if we can.

         C                C7             F               C
Dan just think about that barn, with the hay so soft and warm.

         G                             Am
For it's only three more miles to Mary Ann's,

     G                             C
It's only three more miles to Mary Ann's.
(Talk--chords in background) Dan get up you ornery cuss, or you'll be the death of us. I'm so weary, but I'll help you if I can. Alright dan, perhaps it's best, if we stop a while and rest. For it's still a hundred yards to Mary Ann's. It's still a hundred yards to Mary Ann's. (Talk--chords in background.) Late that night the storm was gone, they found him there at dawn. He'd-a-made it but he just couldn't leave old Dan. Yes they found him there on the plains, hands froze to the reins. He was just a hundred yards from Mary Ann's. [Outro]
        G                              C
He was just a hundred yards from Mary Ann's.
