The Snowman
Paul Heaton
Letra

Chords and tab all relevant to CAPO AT FRET 8 (key of )



Snowman doesn’t really melt he just slowly falls apart

Cos no one built a snow girl to heal his broken heart

We walk through life like snowmen and gradually we melt
N.C.
Cos no one seems to understand the feelings that we felt

Our love somehow in this winter rain

Left just hat and scarf beneath the window pane

Spring pops his head out from underneath the sheets

And the cold and dark of winter begins its long retreat

Blossom brightly doffs his hat at everyone he greets
N.C.
And the love you showed for me has come and gone

We’re Guy Fawkes dummy roaming town we beg for 50p

Hold our freezing hands out thinking I wish this wasn’t me

Carrot for a nose ain’t bad a piece of coal for eyes
N.C.
A bunch of twigs for lovin’ arms where nothing can disguise

This night is done I’m burning bright

I’m off with snowman’s heart into the night

Winter drops its silent leaves like bombs upon our sun

Like a swarm of bees we embrace the breeze with nowhere left to run

And the fly begins to yearn the warmth of the web the spider’s spun

And the love you showed for me has come and gone

In hat and scruffy jacket strangers pass me by

Confident November here and it’s time for us to die
