The Easter Snow Song Lyrics And Guitar Chords

Written by Christy Moore as a tribute to Seamus Ennis. Timing 6/8.

Intro: D-A-D-A
Chorus
(D)Oh the Easter snow
(G)It has faded a(D)way
It (G)was so rare and (D)beautiful
Now it’s (A)melted (A7)back into the (D)clay

Those (G)days will be re(D)membered
Be(G)yond out (A)in the (D)Naul
(G)Listening to the (D)master's notes
As (A)gently (A7)they did (A)fall

(D)Oh the music
As (G)Seamus he did (D)play
But the (G)thaw crept over (D)mantle white
And (A)turned it (A7)back to (D)clay

Chorus (4th line beginning with ‚But’)

He (G)gazed at the embers in re(D)flection
He called (G)up lost (A)verses a(D)gain
He (G)smiled at roguish reco(D)llection
While his (A)fingers gripped the (A7)glass to stem the (D)pain
When (G)knocked on his door would always (D)open
With a (G)welcome he'd (A)bid the time of (D)day
Matthew 7:24-27
