Really Spring

(início)

INTRO: C    F   G   C   F   G   C
If this were really spring
               F
And not just a thaw
        C               G
I'd get out my coloured pencils and I'd
             F
Set about to draw
C
Soon there would be flowers and
                    F
Soon there would be green
   C              G
My yellows and my blues to match
The greenest green I've seen
    C
And I would draw the birdsong
                   F
Returning fine and bright
    C                 G
I'd draw them from my memory if I
Lose my ear or sight
    G
And spring some down to sorrow
    C
The remnants of a grief
   F
Or maybe just the weight of time
       Fm                     G
On the structures underneath
   C
If I can walk the dirt roads, then I
                  F
Will not fear for ice
         C                  G
Like the snow it's all gone underground
Booths to pay the money price
       C
I will draw my world at morning
              F
Coming out of night
       C                  G
I will draw the world the way it is, but I'll
Make it feel alright
If this were really spring
F
And not just a tease
      G
I'd declare our side the winner
       F             Fm  G
Me and winter on our knees
If this were really spring
F
And not just a tease
      G
I'd declare our side the winner
       F             Fm  G
Me and winter on our knees
       F             Fm  G
Me and winter on our knees
