_ My [Gm] grandmother's house is still [Cm] _
there, but it [Gm] isn't the same. _ _
_ [Ab] A plain wooden cottage, [Fm] a patch of [Bb] brown lawn,
[Fm] and a [Ab] fence that hangs bending and _ [Bb] sighing [Ab] in the [Eb] Seattle rain.
_ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] I drive by [Bb] with [Eb] strangers [Cm] and wish they could [Fm] see [Ab] [Gm] what I _ _ _ see.
[Ab] A tangle of summer [Bb] birds [Fm] flying in [Eb] sunlight,
[Fm] a forest [Bb] of [E] _
[Ab] leaves, an [Bb] orchard of [Eb] apricot _ trees.
[Ab] _ [Fm] Where _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
the flowers bloom _ _ [Eb] forever,
_ [Cm] I see [Bb] you [Ab] _ [Gm] [Fm] shining [Bb] through [Eb] the night [F] _ in the ice and snow [Ab] _ _ [Bb] of _ _ [Eb] winter.
_ [Bb] _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
Great-grandfather's [Gm] [Cm] farm is still there, but it isn't [Gm] the same. _ _ _
[Ab] The barn is torn down and the [Bb] fences are [Fm] gone.
The [E] Idaho wind [Ab] blows the topsoil [Bb] [Ab] away [Eb] every spring.
_ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] I still [Bb] see the ghosts [Cm] of the people [Gm] I knew [Ab] [Gm] long ago. _ _ _
[Ab] Inside the old kitchen, [Bb] they bend and they sigh.
_ [Fm] My life passed them [E] on, [Ab] and the world [Bb] in its [Ab] [Bb] way [Eb] passed them by.
[Ab] _ [Gm] Seasons [Ab] _
_ [Eb] _ [Fm] _ _ [Bb] [Eb] of love, _ _
_ [Ab] where they all stay young _ [Eb] forever,
_ _ [Cm] I [Eb] see [Ab] you [Eb] [Ab] shining [Bb] through [Eb] the night _ [F] in the ice and [Ab] snow _ [Bb] of _ _ [Eb] winter.

_ _ [Eb] But most [Bb] of all, [Cm] it is me that has changed [Gm] and yet [F] still [Bb] I'm the same. _ _
[Fm] That's [Ab] me [E] at the weddings, [Ab] _ [Eb] that's me [Bb] at the graves,
[Fm] dressed [E] like the people [Ab] who once looked [Bb] so grown up [Eb] and brave.
_ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] I look into [Bb] me through [Cm] the eyes of [Eb] the child that [Gm] was _ _ _ me.
[Ab] I see [Bb] willows bending, the _ seasonies spring,
_ [Fm] and the silver [E] blue [Ab] sailing boots fly [Bb] with the sun [Eb] on their _ wings.
[Ab] _ [Eb] Seasons [Fm] _ _ [Gm] _ [Bb] _ of [Eb] _ _
_ [Ab] love, where the seasons change _ forever,
[Bb] _ [Eb] _ _ [Cm] I [Bb] see [Ab] you _ [Gm] shining [Bb] through [Eb] the night _ [F] in the ice and _ snow [Ab] _ _ _ [Bb] of winter.
