Page by page
A 
D 
G 
our life is written
A 
D 
In the master's book of books,
A 
D 
G 
wonder if he makes an entry
A 
D 
For each darling mother's love
A 
G 
D 
Like the one I saw this morning
A 
D 
A 
D 
A 
Entered through the station door
D 
G 
She was crying, softly crying
A 
D 
Teardrops falling in the snow
G 
As she came up to the window
A 
D 
Passin' me a letter through
A 
D 
G 
She was waiting for a casket,
A 
D 
one draped in red, white, and blue
A 
G 
Then she said,
D 
I'll wait outside, sir
A 
D 
A 
Soon, I  know the train will blow
D 
G 
I could see her through the window
A 
D 
Teardrops falling in the snow
A 
D

D 
A 
D 
G 
Then the whistle of the engine
A 
D 
Broke the stillness of the air
A 
D 
G 
As the train was slowly stopping,
A 
D 
on her lips there was a prayer
A 
D 
G 
D 
Along the box there was a number
A 
D 
A 
With a name inscribed be low
D 
G 
As she looked upon the casket,
A 
D 
teardrops falling in the snow,
G 
There's a new -made grave awaiting
A 
D 
And its steps are dark and cold
A 
D 
A 
G 
Just to claim this mother's darling,
A 
D 
war for her has taken toll.
A 
D 
G 
But I'm sure they'll
D 
meet up yonder
A 
Where God's children always go
D 
G 
And I always will remember
A 
Teardrops falling in the snow
D
