(Intro)

 Am7        Esus        Am        Asus      Em        E7
 C        G        D

NC                 Am7     Esus                                 Am->Asus
It's beautiful out-side,   -        an old hand gathers wood,   - -
      Em                    E7        C       G         D
Can he see me sitting here?  -     His mind is somewhere else.
C            Em7*    Am7  Esus                             Am->Asus
His friends have flown away,  -     he's left out in the cold.
   Em                    E7               C        G      D
He won't sit by my fire, -     he says he likes it in the snow.
C          D     Am7     C        Am7*   D
Where footprints never go,  he likes it in the snow.

NC                    Am7   Esus                            Am->Asus
It's getting dark out-side, -    the old hand's going home,  - -
       Em                      E7          C      G      D
Has he someone waiting there?  -  Or is he living on his own?
C          D     Am7     C        Am7*   D       C/G
Where footprints never go, he likes it in the snow...

               Em                   Am7              Em
White blanket, hiding the traces of tears she didn't see,
C/G              Em
Oh white blanket covers the memory
   Am7              Em    Am7              Em
Of all that used to be.   All that used to be.
        B7          Em            Asus     Am
But his heart keeps aching in the same old way,
   B7         Em               Am                     
He can't help feeling that she might come back some - 
(Pipe solo)
Am7      Esus        Am->Asus      Em        E7
-day.

C        G        D


It's beautiful outside, a magpie looks for food.
The old hand throws a crumb, 
Do you think he's found a friend?
Where footprints never go, he likes it in the snow...

White blanket, hiding the traces of paths he didn't take.
Oh white blanket covers the memory
Of moves he didn't make. 

Go now...

Oh white blanket, hiding the traces of tears she didn't see,
Snow white blanket simply covers the memory
Of all that used to be.  All that used to be.
But his heart keeps aching in the same old way,
He can't help feeling that she might come back some-

(Outro)
Am7      Esus        Am->Asus      Em        E7
-day.
