G Bm Am D D7 G [Verse]G Bm 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 Bm 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 Bm 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 Bm 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 Bm 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 Bm 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 Bm 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 Bm Am So, little snowbird, take me with you when you goD D7 G To that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow.G Bm 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 Bm 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.
