snowbird

INTRO: A C#m Bm  E7 A

#1.
A                  C#m             Bm
Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean,
    E                                  E7              A
the unborn grass lies waiting for it's coat to turn to green.
    A                  C#m            Bm
The snowbird sings the song he always sings,
    E                                 E7             A
and speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring.

#2.
     A               C#m                   Bm
When I was young, my heart was young then, too,
   E                                       E7                 A
anything that it would tell me, that's the thing that I would do.
    A               C#m           Bm
But now I feel such emptiness within..

        E                                     E7                 A
for the thing that I want most in life is the thing that I can't win.

CHORUS:
A                C#m            Bm
Spread your tiny wings and fly away,
    E                                    E7                A
and take the snow back with you where it came from on that day.
    A             C#m       Bm
The one I love forever is untrue,
    E                                 E7            A
and if I could, you know that I would fly away with you.

#3.
    A                C#m            Bm
The breeze along the river seems to say,
           E                                E7          A
that he'll only break my heart again should I decide to stay.
           A                 C#m               Bm
So, little snowbird, take me with you when you go,
        E                                E7              A
to that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow.

CHORUS:
A                C#m            Bm
Spread your tiny wings and fly away,
    E                                    E7                A
and take the snow back with you where it came from on that day.
    A             C#m       Bm
The one I love forever is untrue,
    E                                 E7            A
and if I could, you know that I would fly away with you.
