At The First Fall Of Snow

Hank Williams

D G

I talked with a stranger, so sad and forlorn,

A D

His garments were sack cloth, all tattered and torn.

G

He told me a story, of sorrow and woe,

D A D

His heart went to Heaven, at the first fall of snow.

D G

He spoke of his angel, a dear baby girl,

A D

He loved every footstep, he loved every curl.

G

But she went to Heaven, just one year ago,

D A D

The angels came for her, at the first fall of snow.

D G

He still had the dolly, that she used to love,

A D

He held and caressed it, and gazed up above.

G

He whispered, "My baby, you're waiting I know,

D A D

I'll bring you your dolly, at the first fall of snow."

D G

And there as I listened, my eyes filled with tears,

A D

I knew she was part of, his happier years.

G

His frail body trembled, he spoke soft and low,

D A D

"I'll be with my baby, at the first fall of snow."

D G

I patted his shoulder, my feelings to hide,

A D

He couldn't know, I was crying inside,

G

He smiled as we parted, cause he didn't know,

D A D

That we lost our baby, at the first fall of snow.
