Footprints Paul McCartney
(Intro)
[Am7] [Esus] [Am] [Asus] [Em] [E7]
[C] [G] [D]
NC Am7 Esus Am->Asus
It's beautiful out-side, - an old hand gathers wood, - -
Can he[Em] see me sitting here? [E7] - His[C] mind is[G] somewhere[D] else.
C Em7* Am7 Esus Am->Asus
His friends have flown away, - he's left out in the cold.
He [Em]won't sit by my fire, [E7]- he says he [C]likes it [G]in the [D]snow.
C D Am7 C Am7* D
Where footprints never go, he likes it in the snow.
NC Am7 Esus Am->Asus
It's getting dark out-side, - the old hand's going home, - -
Has he [Em]someone waiting there? [E7]- Or is he [C]living [G]on his [D]own?
C D Am7 C Am7* D C/G
Where footprints never go, he likes it in the snow...
White blanket, [Em]hiding the traces of [Am7]tears she didn't [Em]see,
[C/G]Oh white blanket [Em]covers the memory
Of [Am7]all that used to [Em]be. [Am7]All that used to [Em]be.
But his [B7]heart keeps [Em]aching in the [Asus]same old [Am]way,
He [B7]can't help [Em]feeling that she [Am]might come back some -
(Pipe solo)
Am7 Esus Am->Asus Em E7
-day.
[C] [G] [D]
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...
White blanket, hiding the traces of paths he didn't take.
Oh white blanket covers the memory
Of moves he didn't make.
Go now...
Oh white blanket, hiding the traces of tears she didn't see,
Snow white blanket simply covers the memory
Of all that used to be. All that used to be.
But his heart keeps aching in the same old way,
He can't help feeling that she might come back some-
(Outro)
Am7 Esus Am->Asus Em E7
-day.
[C] [G] [D]
