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
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
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
