Be G neath this snowy Gmaj7 mantle cold and Am clean 
The D7 unborn grass lies waiting for it's coat to turn to G green 
The snowbird sings the Gmaj7 song he always Am sings 
And D7 speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in G spring. 
 
When I was young, my heart was young then, too 
Anything that it would tell me, thats' the thing that I would do 
But now I feel such emptiness within 
For the thing I want the most in life is the thing that I can't win. 
 
CHORUS: 
Spread your tiny wings and fly away 
And take the snow back with you where it came from on that day 
The one I love forever is untrue 
And if I could, you know that I would fly away with you. 
 
The breeze along the river seems to say 
That he'll only break my heart again should I decide to stay 
So little snowbird take me with you when you go 
To that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow. 
 
CHORUS: 
 
Yea! D7 if I could you know that I would C fly ...... 
Am7 ..... away with G you.
