[Intro]
Am   Em   Am   G
[Verse]
The Amsnows, they melt the soonest, when the Emwinds begin to Amsing
The corn, it ripens fastest Das the frosts are settling in
And Amwhen a young man tells me Dthat my face he'll soon forCget
BeAmfore we part, I'll wage a Dmbet, he'll be Amfain to follow it yet
[Verse]
The Amsnows, they melt the soonest, when the Emwinds begin to Amsing
The swallow flies without a Dthought, as long as it is spring
When Amspringtime goes and winter Dblows, my lad, and you'll be Cfain
With Amall your pride to follow Dmme, aAmcross the stormy main
[Verse]
The Amsnows, they melt the soonest, when the Emwinds begin to Amsing
The bee that flew in summerDtime, in winter it will not sting
AmSeen a woman's anger Dmelt, between the night and Cmorn
It's Amsurely not a harder Dmthing to Ammelt a woman's scorn
[Verse]
So, Amnever bid me farewell, for no Emfarewell I'll reAmceive
You will lie with me, my Dlove, and kiss and take your leave
AmI'll wait here 'til the woodcock Dcalls, and the marten takes its Cwing
For the Amsnows, they melt the soonDmest, when the Amwinds begin to sing
