Snowbird

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