Snowbird Chords

(ver. 1)
Hank Snow
[Intro]
| C  | Em | Dm | Dm |
| Dm | G7 | G7 | G  |
| C  | C  |
 
[Verse 1]
  C               Em               Dm
Beneath the snowy mantle, cold and clean
      G                        G7                      C
The unborn grass lies waiting, for its coat to turn to green
                       Em              Dm
The snowbird sings the song, he always sings
    G                                  G7             C
And speaks to me of flowers, that will bloom again in spring
 
[Chorus]
C                Em             Dm
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
    G                            G7                         C
And take the snow back with you, where it came from on that day
                  Em        Dm
The one I love forever is untrue
    G                    G7                         C
And if I could you know, that I would fly away with you
 
[Verse 2]
                     Em             Dm
The breeze along the river seems to say
           G                          G7                 C
That he'll only break my heart again, should I decide to stay
                             Em                Dm
So, little snowbird, take me with you when you go
        G                             G7                  C
To that land of gentle breezes, where the peaceful waters flow
 
[Interlude]
| C  | Em | Dm | Dm |
| Dm | G7 | G7 | C  |
| G# | C# | C# |
 
[Verse 3]
C#             Fm                    D#m
I was young my heart was young then, too
G#                              G#7                           C#
Anything that it would tell me, that's the thing that I would do
                    Fm            D#m
But now I feel such emptiness within
        G#                                   G#7                C#
For the thing that I want most in life, is a thing that I can't win
 
[Chorus]
C#                Fm            D#m
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
    G#                           G#7                        C#
And take the snow back with you, where it came from on that day
                  Fm        D#m
The one I love forever is untrue
    G#                   G#7                        C#
And if I could, you know that I would fly away with you
 
[Outro]
    G#                   G#7          Fm         D#m      C#
And if I could, you know that I would fly-y-y-y away with you..
