SNOW DEER
(Percy Wenrich / Jack Mahoney - 1913)
Doc Williams and The Border Riders
Banjo tuned E, Capo 3, Key of F
Moderate tempo
F
Sweet Snow Deer mine, moon's a-shine through the pines
C F
While Mohawks sleep, let us creep through the vale
C F
Your cowboy lover, your heart will cover
C
Don't hesitate, it is late, ponies wait
F C
For you and me by the trees in the dale
Bb F
Hear tom-toms beating, let's hit the trail
Chorus:
My pretty Snow Deer, say you will go, dear
Every trail leads to your heart
It's time to marry, no time to tarry
Let me carry you away from here
My sweet Snow Deer
The red men come, bullets hum, there'll be some
Left on the trail, I can't fail, cling to me
We'll crown the story with love and glory
Now after all must I fall, hear my call
And fly away while we may, can't you see
Those ranch lights gleaming, safe there we'll be
