THE FIRST FALL OF SNOW Recorded by Hank Williams, Sr. Writer: Lorene Rose
[G] I talked with a stranger, so sad and for-[C] lorn His garments were [D7] sackcloth, all tattered and [G] torn He told me a story, of sorrow and [C] woe His heart went to [G] heaven, at The [D7] First Fall Of [G] Snow.
[G]He spoke of his angel, a dear, baby[C] girl He loved ev'ry [D7]footstep, he loved ev'ry[G] curl But she went to heaven, just one year[C] ago The angels came for[G] her, at The[D7] First Fall Of[G] Snow.
[G]He still had the dolly, that she used to[C] love He held and[D7] caressed it and gazed up[G] above He whispered my baby, "You're waiting, I[C] know I'll bring you, youR[G] dolly, at The[D7] First Fall Of[G] Snow."
[G]And there as I listened, my eyes filled with[C] tears I knew she was[D7] part of, his happier[G] years His frail body trembled, he spoke soft and[C] low I'll be with my[G] baby, at The[D7] First Fall Of[G] Snow.
[G]I patted his shoulder, my feelings to[C] hide He couldn't kno-ow,[D7] I was crying[G] inside He smiled as we parted, 'cause he didn't[C] know That we lost our[G] baby, at The[D7] First Fall Of[G] Snow.
