E
I sit and stare
        Bb
As you circle like snow
        A   C#m - Bb - Bb
On the lake  a  - lone
E
Sound of your wind
         Bb
Passing home for awhile
          A  C#m  Bb           A  C#m  Bb - Bb
And the smile it brings, the smile it brings
 
E A Bb E Bb A E A Bb Bb
 
E
Took to the sky
     Bb
With thundering roar
       A   C#m   Bb
And I hear your cry
E
Leaving this land
          Bb
Somewhere warm let us stay
      A    C#m    Bb    A    C#m    Bb
And I un - der - stand (un - der - stand)
 
C#m                                        E
And it seems like the winter has lasted so long
C#m                                           E - Bb
Still I know that the spring will bring us to thaw
E                         C#m    A   Bb
Like the leaves you will change and fall
         C#m   Bb    A
When the cold winds call
        A        Bb  -  Bb
But it won't be long
E                      C#m    A     Bb
You’ll fly home in the win - ters through
         C#m  Bb  A
And the earth is new
         A      Bb - Bb
May the day bе soon
 
E E E E
 
E
Raising your young
       Bb
On a branch you can trust
       A  C#m   Bb - Bb
And I hold my doubt
E
Winter is through
          Bb
And the flock has flown in
       A   C#m  Bb     A   C#m  Bb
And I look for you, I look for you  (pause and hold)
 
E                         C#m    A   Bb
Like the leaves you will change and fall
         C#m   Bb    A
When the cold winds call
        A        Bb  -  Bb
But it won't be long
E                      C#m    A     Bb
You’ll fly home in the win - ters through
         C#m  Bb  A
And the earth is new
         A      Bb - Bb
May the day bе soon
 
E A Bb E Bb A E A Bb Bb
Oooooh, oooooh, oooooh
E A Bb E Bb A E A Bb Bb
Oooooh, oooooh, oooooh
