Snowbound

Snowbound and I can't get out (x3)
I have to stay here sleeping
Jill and Charlie couldn’t get home (x3)
Before the blizzard started
The Snow's up and door won’t open(x3)
I'll ride it out until Wednesday
The old man's mad but I don't care (x3)
So I’ll just Skype his daughter
If he don't give it up I'll call her all day(x3)
Just to drive him crazy
Snowbound and I can't get out (x3)
I have to stay here sleeping

A traditional song (Waterbound) rewrite by 
Dave Schipper (c) 2019 Rose Riversongs.
February 2019 record breaking snow.

Simple Roots rethought.

Rethought to an Irish beat

Am                        G
She drew back her bow, and called out the key
F                   G       Am
A melody true and a tune in G,
Am            G
One by one, they each had a say
F         g      Am
Great start …..to the day.
F              g      Am
Great start …..to the day.
  Dm                       Am
With Pete taking pics of this motely crew
  G                  F       G    Am 
A cast of friends shared a fine brew
             F       G    Am
 they shared a fine brew

chorus
Dm                                G         
Here's to the roots and simple they be
F                  G         Am
Here's to the folks, who gather to see.
Dm                                  G          
Here's to the time, we share as friends† 
  Dm           G           Am
Noon time Sunday morning
   Dm              G      Am      F G Am
Noon time Sunday morning

Am                   G
There in the crowd, beside beer and crepes
F                   G       Am
Sat a young soul, his heart to take
Am                              G
She drew back her bow, and just let it ring
F           g      Am
She played  ..   his heartstrings
F               g      Am
She played  ..   his heartstrings
  Dm                       Am
After the show, he bought her a beer
  G                                        F     G  Am 
Told some stories and he laughed with her
            F    G     Am
he laughed with her

Chorus instrumental Chorus and OUT... And here is what it sounds like:
