[Verse 1]
C C7 F
Some folks like the summertime when they can stroll about
G G7 C
Walking through the meadows green is pleasant no doubt
C C7 F
But just give me the wintertime when snow is on the ground
G7 C
For I found her when the snow was on the ground
[Chorus]
C G G7
I traced her little footprints in the snow, in the snow
G7 C
Found her little footprints in the snow, Lord
C C7 F
I bless that happy day when Nellie lost her way
G G7 C
For I found her when the snow was on the ground

[Verse 2]
C C7 F
Now she's up in heaven with the angel band
G G7 C
Some day I'm going to join her in that happy land
C C7 F
But every time the snow falls it brings back memories
G G7 C
For I found her when the snow was on the ground
[Chorus]
C G G7
I traced her little footprints in the snow, in the snow
G7 C
Found her little footprints in the snow, Lord
C C7 F
I bless that happy day when Nellie lost her way
G G7 C
For I found her when the snow was on the ground
