Version 1 Version 2Snowbird: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. A seventies smash from Kraziekhat.
