[Verse 1]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Snow is falling in Manhattan
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
In a slow diagonal fashion
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
On the Sabbath, as it happens
G
Snow is falling in Manhattan
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
If it looks like it might be a bad one
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
The good caretaker springs to action
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Salts the stoop and scoops the cat in
G
Tests an icy patch for traction
[Chorus]

Snow

Snow, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa

Snow, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa

Snow, oh, whoa, Snow, oh, whoa

Snow, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Levels rising on the island
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Shows no sign of soon subsiding
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Drifting deeply down in Brooklyn
G
So much joy in merely looking
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Inside he's got a fire crackling
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
And on the couch, beneath an afghan
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Lies an old friend he just took in
G
Seeking shelter from the cold wind
[Instrumental Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Coming down in smithereens
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
On Staten Island, Bronx and Queens
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
It's blanketing the city streets
G
And the streets beneath are fast asleep
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Songs build little rooms in time
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
And housed within the song's design
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Is the ghost the host has left behind
G
To greet and sweep the guest inside
G
Stoke the fire and sing his lines
[Chorus]
C F
Snow

Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Snow is falling in Manhattan

Inside I've got a fire crackling
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
And on the couch, beneath an afghan
G
You're the old friend I just took in
