Snowbird Anne Murray
Snowbird chords
Anne Murray 1970 (Gene MacLellan)
Capo II
[G] [Em] [Am] [D] [D7] [G]
Be[G]neath it's snowy [Em]mantle cold and [Am]clean,
The [D]unborn grass lies waiting for its [D7]coat to turn to [G]green.
The [G]snowbird sings the [Em]song he always [Am]sings,
And [D]speaks to me of flowers that will [D7]bloom again in [G]spring.
When [G]I was young my [Em]heart was young then, [Am]too.
And [D]anything that it would tell me, that's the [D7]thing that I would [G]do.
But [G]now I feel such [Em]emptiness with[Am]in,
For the [D]thing that I want most in life's the [D7]thing that I can't [G]win.
[G]Spread your tiny [Em]wings and fly a[Am]way,
And [D]take the snow back with you where it [D7]came from on that [G]day.
The [G]one I love for[Em]ever is un[Am]true,
And [D]if I could you know that I would [D7]fly away with [G]you.
The [G]breeze along the [Em]river seems to [Am]say,
That he'll [D]only break my heart again should [D7]I decide to [G]stay.
So, little [G]snowbird, take me [Em]with you when you [Am]go
To that [D]land of gentle breezes where the [D7]peaceful waters [G]flow.
[G]Spread your tiny [Em]wings and fly a[Am]way,
And [D]take the snow back with you where it [D7]came from on that [G]day.
The [G]one I love for[Em]ever is un[Am]true,
And [D]if I could you know that I would [D7]fly away with [G]you.
Yeah, [D]if I could I know that I would [C]fly [Am] away with [G]you.
