Em  Bm  C  Bm  Am
G Am C  D  Am  D
[Verse]
GHow shall I send my Amlove to you in Emwinter, with Amyou so far aDway?
GBeyond the D/F#frowning frozen Emlands, Cbeyond the Amsnarling Dsea
I will Emsend it with the Bmsnowy owl, Csailing silent Bmthrough the midnight Amsky
GAnd when you Amhear his Choarse and whispered Dcry, you will Amknow he comes from Dme
[Verse]
GHow shall I send my Amlove to you in Emspringtime, with Amyou so far aDway?
GBeyond the D/F#long and Emlilting lands, Cbeyond the Amsighing Dsea
I will Emsend it with the Bmmourning dove, Csoft and insistent Bmin the distant Amtrees
GHearing her Amyou will Cknow, she brings my Dlove to Amset your heart at Dease
[Verse]
GHow shall I send my Amlove to you in Emsummer, with Amyou so far aDway?
GBeyond the D/F#dry and dusty Emlands, Cbeyond the Amsimmering Dsea
I will Emsend it in the BmBobwhite's whistle, Cjust as the first light Bmof the morning Amcomes
GAnd when you Amhear her Ccalling you will Dknow that Amyou are not aDlone
[Verse]
GHow shall I send my Amlove to you in Emautumn, with Amyou so far aDway?
GBeyond the D/F#ripe and Emrambling lands, Cbeyond the Amsurging Dsea
I will Emsend it warm in Bmwild goose down, Cthe way the hummingBmbird is said to Amride
GAnd when you Amhear that Cwild and windy Dlaughter, it will Ambe me by your Dside
[Instrumental]
G  Am  Em  Am  D
G D/F# Em  C Am D
Em  Bm  C  Bm  Am
G Am C  D  Am  D
[Verse]
But Ghow shall I send it Amin that final Emwinter, and AmI so far aDway?
GBeyond the D/F#sleeping Emstarlit lands, Cbeyond the Amsilent Dsea
I will Emsend it in the Bmmorning sunlight, Cin the swift storm that Bmburnishes the Amsky
GIn the soft bAmreeze that cCurls its arms aDround you at the Amclosing Dof the Gday
