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