Footprints In The Snow

C                                 
Some folks like the summer time 
                 F
when they can walk about
G7                                
Strolling through the meadow green
                        C
 it's pleasant there no doubt
But give me the winter time when 
               F
snow is on the ground
      G7                           
For I found her when the snow was 
      C
on the ground


[Chorus]
I traced her little footprints in 
    G7
the snow
I found her little footprints in the
 C
 snow
Bless that happy day when Nellie 
         F
lost her way
      G7                           
For I found her when the snow was 
      C
on the ground


Continues after the ad
[Verse]
I dropped in to see her there was a 
          F
big round moon
G7                                
Her mother said she just stepped 
                          C
out but would be returning soon
I found her little footprints and 
                        F
traced them through the snow
      G7                           
For I found her when the snow was 
      C
on the ground


[Chorus]
I traced her little footprints in 
    G7
the snow
I found her little footprints in the
 C
 snow
Bless that happy day when Nellie 
         F
lost her way
      G7                           
For I found her when the snow was 
      C
on the ground


[Verse]
Now she's up in heaven she’s with 
   F
the angels band
G7                                
I know I'm going to meet her in 
            C
that promised land
Every time the snow falls it brings 
     F
back memories
      G7                           
For I found her when the snow was 
      C
on the ground


[Chorus]
I traced her little footprints in 
    G7
the snow
I found her little footprints in the
 C
 snow
Bless that happy day when Nellie 
         F
lost her way
      G7                           
For I found her when the snow was 
      C
on the ground
