The Deepening Snow Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][D][Bm]
[D]It's

[Verse 1]
snowing out there in the gloaming
I've sat here and watched it all [G]night
Little [A]kids will be thrilled when they awaken
and look at the fields deep and [D]white[Bm]
But the [D]snow makes me think of my darling
how she hated the snow and the [G]cold
Now she [A]lies in a [Em]grave back [A]in Knoxville with a
headstone that's just one year [D]old[Bm]
[D]Please make the [A]winter [D]go quick Lord
so the flowers around her can [G]grow
I [A]can't stand the [Em]thought of my [A]loved one
lying there in the deepening snow
[D][Bm][D]

[Verse 2]
Little Nancy climbs upon my knee now and I guess
she's much too [Em]young to [G]know
That the [A]kiss I give [Em]was meant for her mother
[A]lying there in the deepening sno[D]w[Bm]
[D]Please make the [A]win[D]ter go

[Interlude 1]
quick Lord
[D][G][A][Em][A]

[Verse 3]
Lying [A]there in the [D]deepen[A] ing sn[D]ow
