At The First Fall Of Snow Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I talked with a stranger - so sad
and for[G]lorn
His garments [A]were sackcloth - all
tattered and [D]torn
He told me a story - of sorrow
and [G]woe
His heart went to [D]heaven - at the
[A]first fall of [D]snow

[Verse 2]
[D]He spoke of his angel - a dear,
baby [G]girl
He loved every [A]footstep
- he loved every [D]curl
But she went to heaven
- just one year [G]ago
The angels came [D]for her - at the
[A]first fall of [D]snow

[Verse 3]
[D]He still had the dolly - that she
used to [G]love
He held [A]and caressed it - and
gazed up [D]above
He whispered my baby - You're waiting,
I [G]know
I'll bring you,
your [D]dolly - at the [A]first fall of [D]snow

[Verse 4]
[D]And there as I listened - my
eyes filled with [G]tears
I knew she was [A]part of - his happier [D]years
His frail body trembled
- he spoke soft and [G]low
I'll be with my [D]baby - at the
[A]first fall of [D]snow

[Verse 5]
[D]I patted his shoulder - my feelings to [G]hide
[A]He couldn't know - I was
crying in[D]side
He smiled as we parted - 'cause
he didn't [G]know
That we lost our [D]baby
- at the [A]first fall of [D]snow
