Intro 1

Verse 1
D 
It's snowin' out there
in the gloamin'
G 
I've sat here and watched it all night
A 
The kids will be thrilled when they waken
D 
And look at the fields deep and white
But the snow makes me
think of my darlin'
G 
For he hated the snow and the cold
A 
Now he lies in a grave back in Knoxville
With a headstone that's
D 
just one year old
Won't you please make
the winter go quick,
G 
Lord, so the flowers around him can grow?
A 
For I can't stand the
thought of my darlin'
D 
A 
D 
lying there in the deep running snow
Little Jimmy climbs up on my knee now,
G 
saying, Mommy, what causes the snow?
A 
And I tell of the wonderful Father
D 
Who cares for us all here below
Then I hold him so close and I kiss him
G 
And he, kissing back, doesn't know
A 
That my kiss is meant for his daddy
D 
Lying there in the deep burning snow
Won't you please make
the winter go quick,
G 
So the flowers around him can grow
A 
For I can't stand the thought
of my darlin'
D 
Lyin' there in the deep burnin' snow
Bm 
A 
D 
Out there in the deep burnin' snow
you
