Snow

      C                       
The branches have traded their 
                    Am
leaves for white sleeves
    C                          
All warm-blooded creatures make 
                      Am
ghosts as they breathe
    C                           
Scarves are wrapped tightly like 
               Am
gifts under trees
  C                             
Christmas lights tangle in knots 
        Am
annually

  F
Our families huddle closely
  Am                               
Betting warmth against the cold
     (G)

  F
But our bruises seem to surface
  G
Like mud beneath the snow

  C                                
So we sing carols softly as sweet 
       Am
as we know
  C                                
A prayer that our burdens will lift
       Am
 as we go
  C                            C/B
Like young love still waiting 
                Am        G
under mistletoe
  Am               Am             
We'll welcome december with 
       F               C
tireless hope

           Am
Let our bells keep on ringing
             C                   C/B
Making angels in the snow
              Am
May the melody disarm us
          G
When cracks begin to show

             Am
Like the petals in our pockets
             C
May we remember who we are
          Am
Unconditionally cared for
                     G
By those who share our broken hearts

       C                           
The table is set and our glasses 
    Am
are full
           C                   
Though pieces go missing may we 
                  Am
still feel whole
       Am                          
We'll build new traditions in place
           C         C/B
 of the old
            Am             G   
Cause life without revision will 
          F                  C
silence our souls

           Am
Let our bells keep on ringing
             C                   C/B
Making angels in the snow
              Am
May the melody surround us
          G
When cracks begin to show

             Am
Like the petals in our pockets
             C
May we remember who we are
          Am
Unconditionally cared for
                     G
By those who share our broken hearts

     C                         
As gentle as feathers, the snow 
         Am
piles high
       C                    
Our world gets rewritten and 
                               Am
retraced every time
                C                  
Like fresh plates and clean slates,
                 Am
 our future is white
    Am             G             
New year's resolutions will reset
F            C
 tonight
