[A] [C#m] [Bm]
[E]
[A]
Beneath this [C#m] snowy mantle [Bm] cold and pale
[E] The unborn grass lies waiting for his cold [A] return to bring
The snowbird [C#m] sings the song he [Bm] always sings
[E] And speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again [A] in spring
When I was young [C#m] my heart was [Bm] young then too
And [E] anything that it would tell me that's the thing that I [A] would do
But now I feel [C#m] such emptiness [Bm] within
[E] For the thing that I want most in life's the thing that I [A] can't win
Spread your [C#m] tiny wings and [Bm] fly away
[E] And take the snow back with you where it came from on [A] that day
What I love [C#m] forever is [Bm] untrue
[E] And if I could you know that I would fly away [A] with you
The breeze [C#m] along the river [Bm] seems to say
That [E] he'll only break my heart again should I [A] decide to stay
So little snowbird [C#m] take me with you [Bm] when you go
To [E] that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful [A] waters flow
Spread your [C#m] tiny wings and [Bm] fly away
[E] And take the snow back with you where it came from on [A] that day
What I love [C#m] forever is [Bm] untrue
[E] And if I could you know that I would fly away [A] with you
Yeah, [E] if I could you know that I [D] would fly [Bm] away [A] with you
