Turn The Dirt Over

Em
Come closer to the window-frame
Am                                  C
Window to the dark and the field of snow
Em
I saw you running like summer-flame
Am
Running through the grass
        C
Turning gold to black

Bm                Am
Oh, turn the dirt over
               C      Em
If you want to grow back
Bm              Am
Oh! open up the shutters
                  C
See the moonlight on
G
The snow
C
On the snow

Em
You left your brother in a northern town
Am                            C
Took the ferry o'er the water on the bay
Em
His body covered by the colors going down
Am                                C
A statue in the square before the wind could change

Bm                 Am
Oh, turn the water over
               C      Em
If you want to flow down
Bm              Am
Oh! open up the shutters
                C
See the falling snow
G
The falling snow

Em
Come softly to the window frame
Am                              C
Window through the dark and the fields of snow
Em
I saw you running like a summer-flame
Am
Running through the grass
        C
Turning gold to black

Bm                Am
Oh, turn the dirt over
               C      Em
If you want to grow back
Bm                     Am
Oh, open up the shutters
                  C
See the moonlight on
G
The snow
                  C
See the moonlight on
G
The snow
C          Em
On the snow
