Anne Murray, Snowbird (1970)
^{Key: :[A] (w: Gene MacLellan) (BPM: 104)}

INTRO:
[A] [C#m] [Bm] [E] ^[E] [A]

VERSE 1:
Be-[A]-neath it's snowy [C#m] mantle cold and [Bm] clean
The [E] unborn grass lies waiting for its ^[E] coat to turn to [A] green
The [A] snowbird sings the [C#m] song he always [Bm] sings
And [E] speaks to me of flowers that will ^[E] bloom again in [A] spring

VERSE 2:
When [A] I was young my [C#m] heart was young then, [Bm] too
And [E] anything that it would tell me, that's the ^[E] thing that I would [A] do
But [A] now I feel such [C#m] emptiness with [Bm] in
For the [E] thing that I want most in life's the ^[E] thing that I can't [A] win

CHORUS:
[A] Spread your tiny [C#m] wings and fly a-[Bm]-way
And [E] take the snow back with you where it ^[E] came from on that [A] day
The [A] one I love for-[C#m]-ever is un-[Bm]-true
And [E] if I could you know that I would ^[E] fly away with [A] you

VERSE 3:
The [A] breeze along the [C#m] river seems to [Bm] say
That he'll [E] only break my heart again should ^[E] I decide to [A] stay
So, little [A] snowbird, take me [C#m] with you when you [Bm] go
To that [E] land of gentle breezes where the ^[E] peaceful waters [A] flow

CHORUS:
[A] Spread your tiny [C#m] wings and fly a-[Bm]-way
And [E] take the snow back with you where it ^[E] came from on that [A] day
The [A] one I love for-[C#m]-ever is un-[Bm]-true
And [E] if I could you know that I would ^[E] fly away with [A] you

OUTRO:
Yeah, [E] if I could I know that I would [D] fly-y-y-y ^[/C#] [Bm]
Away with [A] you [A open]
