| EM | |
| when the winter comes |
| AM | |
| the sun is | low upon the fields |
| D | |
| the sky is | cold |
| B | |
| and it | throws down icy snow |
| EM | |
| the lakes are glass |
| AM | |
| the riv | er's all a frozen mass |
| D | |
| the trees are | bare |
| B | |
| and the | north wind blows the air |
| C | |
| but the children | dance and sing |
| G | |
| as i | f the time were spring |
| AM | |
| when the seasons | change everything |
| EM | |
| they find a | joy in what it brings |
| then the sun comes high |
| and the spring rains come and go |
| the summer air is so hot |
| it melts the russian snow |
| the fields are brown |
| and there's no rain to make them grow |
| and the old ones sigh |
| the heat has made them tired and slow |
| but the children dance and sing |
| as if the time were spring |
| when the seasons change everything |

| they find a joy it what it brings |
| but the children dance and sing |
| as if the time were spring |
| when the seasons change everything |
| they find a joy it what it brings |
| september leaves are falling |
| through the autumn haze |
| and the school bells tell everyone |
| there'll be no more summer days |
| warm nights are gone |
| and all the leaves are turning brown |
| and the windows close again |
| when the winter comes around |
| but the children dance and sing |
| as if the time were spring |
| when the seasons change everything |
| they find a joy in what it brings |
| so i will laugh and dance |
| and watch the children sing |
| and i will have a chance |
| of finding joy in everything |
