[Eb] [Ab]
It was in the dead of winter.
[Db] Oh how well I can remember
[Ab] that day of howling wind and [Eb] blinding snow
A [Ab] neighbor came and as we listened
[Db] He said two small boys were missing [Ab] and they'd surely die if [Eb] lost [Ab] out in the cold
[Eb] Papa tried to organize a searching party [Db] folks all said it would [Ab] be foolhardy
[Db] To look for [Ab] them until the [Eb] storm died down
[Ab] Papa left me and mama cried [Db] and went out alone
To find him [Ab] home the day
[Eb] the big blizzard
[Ab] hit our town
Next day when the storm was over
[Db] the search party soon
discovered [Ab] papa's frozen body lying
[Eb] in the snow
[Bbm] They [Ab] picked him up and there beneath him
[Db] Were the frightened hungry children [Ab] wrapped up safe and [Eb] tight in papa's [Ab] overcoat
[F] The [Bb] youngsters told how papa found him
[Eb] How he wrapped his coat around him [Bb] and he rubbed their bodies till they [F] felt all warm
Then he [Bb] said boys lie here beneath me
[Eb] And if I should go to sleep you [Bb] stay awake and [F] you'll be safe here [Bb] from the storm
[F] Papa tried to organize a searching party [Eb] folks all say it would [Bb] be [Eb] foolhardy
To look for [Bb] them until the [F] storm died down

[F] the big blizzard
[Bb] hit our town
