Footprints

Intro: C  D  C  G 



                         C        D 
I followed footprints in the snow 
                   C 
Never knowing if I was right behind you 
G                    C 
Looking down, no one would know 
D                        C               G 
I wasn't walking hand in hand beside you 
                  C 
As our footprints lead the way 
D                        C                    G 
To a hearth where hearts we made surround you 
                    C 
You're awash in all its glow 
D                     C        G 
I'm still standing in the snow 


 
                               C      D 
I stood and watched the lights go out 
                     C                     G 
While the snowflakes settled all around me 
                          C 
Though it filled my heart with doubt 
D                       C 
Couldn't move, and this is where you found me 
G                   C 
As our footprints disappeared 
D                C 
Snow erasing how I came to be here 
G                     C 
I've got nowhere else to go 
D                  F 
And now you're standing 
       Em 
In the snow 


 
D/F# G   A Bm F 
Look for understanding 
       Em7 
In the snow 
D/F# G    A    Bm F 
You  look just outstanding 
       Em7 
In the snow 
G 
Standing in the snow

                C 
Now it's almost Christmas eve 
D                       C 
And I'm surrounded with the sound of laughter 
G                           C 
To give is better than to deceive 
D                   C       D 
And I received a happy-ever-after 
G                       C 
You might've left me in the cold 
D                        C 
A fitting ending for the fool that I was 
G                        C 
But you'd be cuddled up alone 
D                        C 
I'd still be standing in the snow
