Key: Bb
Introduction: C Em Dm Dm Dm G7 G7 G C C
C Em Dm
Beneath the snowy mantle, cold and clean
G G7 C
The unborn grass lies waiting, for its coat to turn to green
Em Dm
The snowbird sings the song, he always sings
G G7 C
And speaks to me of flowers, that will bloom again in spring
C Em Dm
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
G G7 C
And take the snow back with you, where it came from on that day
Em Dm
The one I love forever is untrue
G G7 C
And if I could you know, that I would fly away with you
Em Dm
The breeze along the river seems to say
G G7 C
That he'll only break my heart again, should I decide to stay
Em Dm
So, little snowbird, take me with you when you go
G G7 C
To that land of gentle breezes, where the peaceful waters flow
C# Fm D#m
I was young my heart was young then, too
G# G#7 C#
Anything that it would tell me, that's the thing that I would do
Fm D#m
But now I feel such emptiness within
G# G#7 C#
For the thing that I want most in life, is a thing that I can't win
C# Fm D#m
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
G# G#7 C#
And take the snow back with you, where it came from on that day
Fm D#m
The one I love forever is untrue
G# G#7 C#
And if I could, you know that I would fly away with you
G# G#7 Fm D#m C#
And if I could, you know that I would fly-y-y-y away with you..
