Introdução: C Em Dm C
C Em Dm
Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean,
G
The unborn grass lies waiting,
C
for its coat to turn to green,
C Em Dm
The snowbird sings a song he always sings,
G
And speaks to me of flowers,
C
that will bloom again in spring,
(verse 2)
C Em Dm
When I was young my heart was young then too,
G
Anything that it would tell me,
C
that's the thing that I would do,
C Em Dm
But now I feel such emptiness within,
G
For the thing that I want most in life,
C
Is the thing I can't win,
C Em Dm
Spread your tiny wings and fly away,
G
And take the snow back with you,
C
Where it came from on that day,
C Em Dm
The one I love forever is untrue,
G
And if I could you know,
C
that I would fly away with you,
(verse 3)
C Em Dm
The breeze along the river seems to say,
G
That she'll only break my heart again,
C
should I decide to stay,
C Em Dm
So little snowbird take me with you when you go,
G
To that land of gentle breezes,
C
where the peaceful waters flow,
C Em Dm
Spread your tiny wings and fly away,
G
And take the snow back with you,
C
Where it came from on that day,
C Em Dm
The one I love forever is untrue,
G
And if I could you know,
C
That I would fly away with you,
G
Yeah, and if I could you know,
F G C
That I would fly away with you
