Snowbird:Anne Murray.
#1 in 1970.
INTRO: A F#m Bm D E7 A
#1.
A F#m Bm
Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean,
E E7 A
the unborn grass lies waiting for it's coat to turn to green.
A F#m Bm
The snowbird sings the song he always sings,
E E7 A
and speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring.
#2.
A F#m Bm
When I was young, my heart was young then, too,
E E7 A
anything that it would tell me, that's the thing that I would do.
A F#m Bm
But now I feel such emptiness within..
E E7 A
for the thing that I want most in life is the thing that I can't win.
CHORUS:
A F#m Bm
Spread your tiny wings and fly away,
E E7 A
and take the snow back with you where it came from on that day.
A F#m Bm
The one I love forever is untrue,
E E7 A
and if I could, you know that I would fly away with you.
#3.
A F#m Bm
The breeze along the river seems to say,
E E7 A
that he'll only break my heart again should I decide to stay.
A F#m Bm
So, little snowbird, take me with you when you go,
E E7 A
to that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow.
CHORUS:
A F#m Bm
Spread your tiny wings and fly away,
E E7 A
and take the snow back with you where it came from on that day.
A F#m Bm
The one I love forever is untrue,
E E7 A
and if I could, you know that I would fly away with you.
OUTRO:
E D Bm A
Yeah, if I could you know that I would fly.y.y.y...a..way with you.
