[Verse 1]
Cmaj7Fmaj7
Snow is falling in Manhattan
Cmaj7Fmaj7
In a slow diagonal fashion
Cmaj7Fmaj7
On the Sabbath, as it happens
G
Snow is falling in Manhattan
Cmaj7Fmaj7
If it looks like it might be a bad one
Cmaj7Fmaj7
The good caretaker springs to action
Cmaj7Fmaj7
Salts the stoop and scoops the cat in
G
Tests an icy patch for traction
[Chorus]

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

Snow, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa
F
Snow, oh, whoa, Snow, oh, whoa
F
Snow, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7Fmaj7
Levels rising on the island
Cmaj7Fmaj7
Shows no sign of soon subsiding
Cmaj7Fmaj7
Drifting deeply down in Brooklyn
G
So much joy in merely looking
Cmaj7Fmaj7
Inside he's got a fire crackling
Cmaj7Fmaj7
And on the couch, beneath an afghan
Cmaj7Fmaj7
Lies an old friend he just took in
G
Seeking shelter from the cold wind
[Instrumental Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Cmaj7Fmaj7
Coming down in smithereens
Cmaj7Fmaj7
On Staten Island, Bronx and Queens
Cmaj7Fmaj7
It's blanketing the city streets
G
And the streets beneath are fast asleep
Cmaj7Fmaj7
Songs build little rooms in time
Cmaj7Fmaj7
And housed within the song's design
Cmaj7Fmaj7
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]

Cmaj7Fmaj7
Snow is falling in Manhattan
Cmaj7Fmaj7
Inside I've got a fire crackling
Cmaj7Fmaj7
And on the couch, beneath an afghan
G
You're the old friend I just took in
