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.
