SONG TITLE: Snowbird
-- CLASSY CLASSICS --
BY Gene MacLellan © 1970


C                  Em              Dm
Beneath it's snowy mantle cold and clean
    G7                                                C
The unborn grass lies waiting for its coat to turn to green
                       Em             Dm
The snowbird sings the song he always sings
    G7                                               C
And speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring 
 
                    Em                   Dm
When I was young my heart was young then too
       G7                                                        C
And anything that it would tell me that's the thing that I would do
                    Em            Dm
But now I feel such emptiness within
        G7                                                      C
For the thing that I want most in life's the thing that I can't win
 
            Em                 Dm
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
    G7                                                     C
And take the snow back with you where it came from on that day
                          Dm
The one I love forever is untrue
    G7                                             C
And if I could you know that I would fly away with you
 
                     Em             Dm
The breeze along the river seems to say
           G7                                           C
That he'll only break my heart again should I decide to stay
                                             Dm
So little snowbird take me with you when you go
        G7                                               C
To that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow
 
            Em                 Dm
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
    G7                                                     C
And take the snow back with you where it came from on that day
                          Dm
The one I love forever is untrue
    G7                                             C
And if I could you know that I would fly away with you
 
     G7                                             C
Yeah if I could you know that I would fly away with you
