The Snow It Melts The Soonest Chords by Anne Briggs

_ Oh, the snow, it melts the _ soonest when the winds begin to sing
_ And the corn, it ripens fastest when the frosts are setting in
And when a young man tells me that me face he'll soon _ forget
_ Before we part I'd better _ crown he'd be fain to follow it [G] _ yet _
_ Oh, the snow, it melts the _ soonest when the winds begin to _ sing
And the swallow _ skins without a thought as long as [Eb] it is spring _
But when spring blows and winter _ goes me lad and you be _ fain
With all your pride for to follow me were it cross the _ stormy _ main _ _
Oh, the snow, it melts the _ soonest when the [G] winds begin to sing
And the bee that flew when summer _ shone _ in winter he won't sing
And all the flowers in all the land so brightly there they be
[Em] And the snow, it melts the _ _ soonest when [N] my true love's for me
[Gm] _ _ _
So never say me farewell here no [G] farewell I'll receive
_ You can meet me at the stile you'll kiss and take your leave
And I'll wait here till the woodcock _ crows or the marten takes his leave
Since the snow, it melts the _ _ soonest when the winds begin to _ sing _ _ _ _
