Paul McCartney - Footprints: Guitar Chords

                   Am7
It's beautiful outside
   Fmaj7
An old hand gathers wood
       Em                 Em7
Can he see me sitting here
     C       G        D
His mind is somewhere else
      C       G         Am
His friends have flown away

Am
He's left out in the cold
   Fmaj7
He won't sit by my fire
            C       G        D
He says he likes it in the snow
       Am         Em    C
Where footprints never go
    D    Am          D
He likes it in the snow

It's getting dark outside
The old hand's going home
Has he someone waiting there
Or is he living on his own
Where footprints never go
He likes it in the snow

Chorus:
 C      D        Em                  Am7
White blanket, hiding the traces of tears she
       Em
didn't see
C          D      Em                 Am7
Oh white blanket covers the memory of all that
         Em
used to be
Am7              Em
All that used to be
         B7         Em            Am       D7
But his heart keeps aching in the same old way
   B7          Em               Am         D7
He can't help feeling that she might come back
    Am7
someday

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

Chorus:
White blanket, hiding the traces of paths
he didn't take
Oh white blanket covers the memory
Of moves he didn't make
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
But his heart keeps aching in the same old way
He can't help feeling that she might
come back someday
