Snowbird chords

C Em  Dm  G  G  C   

  C               Em              Dm
Beyond this snowy mantle cold and clean
    G                                                 C
The unborn grass lies waiting for its coat to turn to green
    C                  Em              Dm
The snowbird sings the songs he always sings
    G                                                  C
And speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring

     C              Em                  Dm
When I was young my heart was young and true
   G                                                         C
Anything that it would tell me that’s the thing that I would do
    C               Em            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

C                Em             Dm
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
    G
And take the snow back with you 
         G                  C
Where it came from on that day
    C             Em        Dm
The one I love forever is untrue
    G                                               C
And if I could, you know that I would fly away with you

    C                Em             Dm
The breeze along the river seems to say
            G                                            C
That you’ll only break my heart again should I decide to stay
          C                Em                Dm
So little snowbird take me with you when you go
        G                                                C
To that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow

  C               Em             Dm
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
    G
And take the snow back with you 
         G                  C
Where it came from on that day
    C             Em        Dm
The one I love forever is untrue
    G                                               C
And if I could, you know that I would fly away with you

                                                           2/4
      G                                F          Dm         C  C  C
Yeah, if I could you know that I would fly-y-y-y-y away with you
