Snowbird chords
Anne Murray 1970 (Gene MacLellan)
Capo II
G Em Am D D7 G
G Em Am
Beneath it's snowy mantle cold and clean,
D D7 G
The unborn grass lies waiting for its coat to turn to green.
G Em Am
The snowbird sings the song he always sings,
D D7 G
And speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring.
G Em Am
When I was young my heart was young then, too.
D D7 G
And anything that it would tell me, that's the thing that I would do.
G Em Am
But now I feel such emptiness within,
D D7 G
For the thing that I want most in life's the thing that I can't win.
G Em Am
Spread your tiny wings and fly away,
D D7 G
And take the snow back with you where it came from on that day.
G Em Am
The one I love forever is untrue,
D D7 G
And if I could you know that I would fly away with you.
G Em Am
The breeze along the river seems to say,
D D7 G
That he'll only break my heart again should I decide to stay.
G Em Am
So, little snowbird, take me with you when you go
D D7 G
To that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow.
G Em Am
Spread your tiny wings and fly away,
D D7 G
And take the snow back with you where it came from on that day.
G Em Am
The one I love forever is untrue,
D D7 G
And if I could you know that I would fly away with you.
D C Am G
Yeah, if I could I know that I would fly away with you.
