"Footprints" (capo: 5th. fret) ____Intro: ------/---            --------- ____Verse: 1  It’s beautiful outside     An old hand gathers wood________  Can he see me sitting here?  His mind is somewhere else ____Verse: 2  His friend have flown away      He’s left out in the cold________  He won’t sit by my fire  He says he likes it in the snow  Where footprints never go  He likes it in the snow ____Verse: 3  It’s getting dark outside  The old hand’s going home________  Has he someone waiting there?  Is he living on his own?  Where footprints never go  He likes it in the snow ____Chorus: 1 White blanket hiding the traces  Of tears she didn’t see Oh white blanket covers the memory  Of all that used to be____all that used to be ____Coda:  But his heart keeps aching  In the same old way  He can’t help feeling that  She might come back someday                                      ____Verse: 4  It’s beautiful outside     A magpie looks for food________  The old hand throws a crumb  Do you think he’s found a friend?  Where footprints never go  He likes it in the snow ____Chorus: 2 White blanket hiding the traces  Of paths he didn’t take Oh white blanket covers the memory  Of moves he didn’t make ____Chorus: 1 (w/ changes) Oh white blanket hiding the traces  Of tears he didn’t see Snow white blanket simply covers the memory  Of all that used to be ____Coda:  But his heart keeps aching  In the same old way  He can’t help feeling that  She might come back someday
