The Deepening Snow

C
It's snowing out there in the moon light
                                 F
I've sat here and watched it all night
    G7
The kids will be thrilled in the morning
                                C
And look at the fields deep and white

But the snow makes me think of my daddy
                              F
For he hated the snow and the cold
    G7
Now he lies in a grave here in Galway
                                      C
With a headstone that's just one year old

Won't you please make the winter go quick Lord
                              F
So the flowers around him can grow
    G7
For I can't stand the thought of my daddy
                             C
Lying there in the deepening snow

Little Jimmy climbs up on my knee now
                             F
Saying daddy what causes the snow
    G7
And I tell of the wonderful father
                          C
Who cares for us all here below

Then I hold him so close and I kiss him
                                   F
And the kiss he gives back doesn't know
     G7
That my kiss is meant for my daddy
                             C
Lying there in the deepening snow

Won't you please make the winter go quick Lord
                              F
So the flowers around him can grow
    G7
For I can't stand the thought of my daddy
                             C
Lying there in the deepening snow
    G7
For I can't stand the thought of my daddy
                             C
Lying there in the deepening snow
