How shall I send my love to you in winter, with you so far away?
G+G     D/F#D/F#      E minorEm   C majorC     A minorAm    D MajorD
Beyond the frowning frozen lands, beyond the snarling sea

And when you hear his hoarse and whispered cry, you will know he comes from me

Beyond the long and lilting lands, beyond the sighing sea

I will send it with the mourning dove, soft and insistent in the distant trees
G+G      A minorAm    C majorC          D MajorD    A minorAm        D MajorD
Hearing her you will know, she brings my love to set your heart at ease

How shall I send my love to you in summer, with you so far away?
G+G     D/F#D/F#     E minorEm   C majorC     A minorAm    D MajorD
Beyond the dry and dusty lands, beyond the simmering sea
    E minorEm       B minorBm         C majorC            B minorBm       A minorAm
I will send it in the Bobwhite's whistle, just as the first light of the morning comes
G+G      A minorAm    C majorC        D MajorD     A minorAm      D MajorD
And when you hear her calling you will know that you are not alone

How shall I send my love to you in autumn, with you so far away?
G+G     D/F#D/F#   E minorEm       C majorC     A minorAm   D MajorD
Beyond the ripe and rambling lands, beyond the surging sea
    E minorEm       B minorBm        C majorC         B minorBm       A minorAm
I will send it warm in wild goose down, the way the hummingbird is said to ride
G+G      A minorAm    C majorC       D MajorD         A minorAm      D MajorD
And when you hear that wild and windy laughter, it will be me by your side

Verse:
  G+G          A minorAm      E minorEm     A minorAm    D MajorD
But how shall I send it in that final winter, and I so far away?
G+G     D/F#D/F#   E minorEm       C majorC     A minorAm   D MajorD
Beyond the sleeping starlit lands, beyond the silent sea
    E minorEm       B minorBm        C majorC            B minorBm      A minorAm
I will send it in the morning sunlight, in the swift storm that burnishes the sky
G+G      A minorAm     C majorC       D MajorD        A minorAm   D MajorD   G+G
In the soft breeze that curls its arms around you at the closing of the day
