Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
I have always liked this song, but there are no chords posted anywhere so i decided to
post them. (Note:This was played by ear so somethings might not be right but it all
sounded right to me.)

*=ONLY STRUM ONCE
D
Oh, I hear the quiet now,
F D
Of paper airplanes falling down.
D
Oh, the branches of every tree
F D
Bend like a cathedral over me
CHORUS:
F
Down where the river bends
C
Everyone’s waiting
F G
But that’s not the reason I’m making the tracks in the snow.
D* C* G*
There’s a box in my hands as I go
D* C* G* D
Wrapped up in scarlet and gold for you.
VERSE 2:
D
Oh, there’s a choir upon the wind
F D
Singing all familiar hymns.
D
My ears, they’re playing tricks on me
F D
I can almost hear your harmony
CHORUS:
F
Down where the river bends
C
That’s where you’re waiting
F G
But that’s not the reason I’m making these tracks in the snow.
D* C* G*
There’s a box in my hands as I go
D* C* G* C
Wrapped up in scarlet and gold for you.
(I couldn’t figure out the instrumental part so I just played the chords of the chorus again)
F C F G
CHORUS:
F
Down where the river bends
C*
Nobody’s waiting
F G
But there’s still a reason I’m making these tracks in the snow
D* C* G*
Down at the end of the road
D* C* G*
Ill clear a place in the snow
D* C* G* D
And leave this box wrapped in scarlet and gold for you.
------------
I hope that was somewhat right. Enjoy!
