Ryan's Fancy - A Childrens Winter

      [Verse]
    D                A          A7
The winter snow is a child's de-light,
      D         G          A   A7
As it brightens up the win-ter night,
       D                  A               A7
And it coats the earth in a cheery white,
      D      A           D
As it softly drifts upon it.

    D             A         A7
The smiling faces watch the ground,
   D              G           A7
As the snow is fal-ling all a-round,
    D                       A        A7
And through the glass there comes no sound,
            D      A             D
As the snow-flakes melt upon it.

[Chorus] (x2)
D
Snowman, snow house,
     G
Hey, play with me;
          Em        A        A7
Shake the snow down from the tree,
D                    A       A7
Games once played by you and me.
D           A       D
Snow is sof-tly fal-ling.

[Verse]
     D                 A                A7
Well the morning comes and the children play,
      D        G             A        A7
Their laughter rings out thr-ough the day,
     D                A       A7
They hope the snow is here to stay,
    D                A    D 
And that it won't be-gone tomorrow.

    D             A        A7
Sli-ding, running down the hill,
    D        G      A        A7
The time for fun is now, but still,
     D                A           A7
When they climb up on life's long hill,
         D            A            D
They are sure to meet some sorrow.

[Chorus] (x2)
D
Snowman, snow house,
     G
Hey, play with me;
          Em        A        A7
Shake the snow down from the tree,
D                    A       A7
Games once played by you and me.
D           A       D
Snow is sof-tly fal-ling.
