[Bm] [A]
[C] [D]
[D] [G]
Beneath the [Bm] snowy mantle [Am] cold and clean,
[D] The unborn grass lies waiting for its cold to turn [G] green.
The snowbird sings [Bm] a song he [Am] always sings,
[D] And speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again [G] in spring.
When I was young [Bm] my heart was [Am] young then too,
[D] Anything that it would tell me, that's the thing that I [G] would do.
But now I feel [Bm] such emptiness [Am] within,
For [D] the thing [D] that I want most in life's a thing that I [G] can't win.
[D] Spread your [Bm] tiny wings and [Am] fly away,
[D] And take the snow back with you where it came from on [G] that day.
[E] [G] No one I [Bm] love forever is [Am] untrue,
[D] And if I could you know that I would fly away [G] with you.
Alright Floyd!
[Bm]
[Am] [D]
[E]
[G]
[E] [D]
[G]
The breeze along [Bm] the river seemed [Am] to say,
That [D] you'll only break my heart again should I decide [G] to stay.
So little snowbird [Bm] take me with you [Am] when you go,
[Em] To [D] that land of [G] gentle breezes [D] where the peaceful [G] waters flow.
Spread your [Bm] tiny wings and [Am] fly away,
[D] And take the snow back with you where it came from [G] on that day.
No one I [Bm] love forever [Am] is untrue,
[D] And if I could you know that I would fly [G] away with you.
And if I could you know that [Am] I would [E] fly [C]
[G] away with you.

But now I feel [Bm] such emptiness [Am] within,
For [D] the thing [D] that I want most in life's a thing that I [G] can't win.
