So here's a song by Jean McLellan, this one you might know, and so if you do, please sing along.
It's called Snowbird.
[F#]
[Am] [D]
[G]
[Bm]
[Am] [D]
[A] [G]
He's a [Bm] snowy man so [Am] cold and clean.
[D] The unblown grass flies waiting for its cold [G] to turn green.
The snowbird sings [Bm] the song he always [Am] sings.
And [D] it speaks to [G] me of [D] flowers that will bloom again [G] in spring.
Spread your [Bm] tiny wings and [Am] fly away.
[D]
Take the snow back with you where it came from [G] on that day.
The one I [Bm] love forever is [Am] untrue.
[D]
If I could even know that I would fly [G] away with you.
I [Bm]
[Am] [D]
[G]
was [Bm] young, my heart was young [Am] then too.
And anything [D] that it would tell me, that's the thing that [G] I would do.
But how I feel [Bm] such emptiness [Am] within.
[Em] For [D] the thing that I want most in life's the thing that [G] I can't win.
Spread your tiny [Bm] wings and [Am] fly away.
[Em]
[D] Take the snow [E] back with you where it [G] came from on that day.
The one I love [Bm] forever [Am] is untrue.
[C]
[D] If I could even know that I would fly [G] away with you.
[B] [Am] [C]
[A] [D] [E]
[G]
[Bm] [Am]
[A] [D]
[G] The breeze [Bm] along the river [Am] seems to say.
[D] That she'll only break my heart again [A] should I [G] decide to stay.
So little snowbird take [Bm] me with you [Am] when you go.
To [D] that land of gentle breezes [E] where the peaceful [G] waters flow.
Spread your [Bm] tiny wings and [Am] fly away.
[D] Take the snow back with you where it came from [G] on that day.
The one I love [Bm] forever is [Am] untrue.
[D] If I could [E] even know that I would fly [G] away with you.
Oh, [D] if I could even know that I [C] would fly.
