    Huhu. Huhu. Huhu. 
               D5                                                   G5                           D5 
1. The snowflakes fall, as winter calls, and time just seems to fly, 
                           G5                       D5      - A5                   D5 
    is it the loneliness in me that makes      me wanna cry ? 
                                                                          G5                     D5 
    My heart is sad like a mourning dove that's lost its mate in flight, 
                                        G5                                      D5      - A5            D5 
    hear the cooing of his lonely heart through the stillness    of the night. 
                   A5                         A5      G5                D5 
Whisperin' pines, whisperin' pines, tell me, is it so ? 
                   A5                       A5     G5                                 D5 
Whisperin' pine, whisperin' pine, you are the one who knows. 
                    A5                      A5                G5                        D5 
My darlin's gone, oh, she's gone, and I need your sympathy, 
                                           A5      - A5             D5 
whisperin' pines, send my baby        back to me. 
      D5                                                      G5                           D5 
2. See that squirrel up in the tree, his mate there on the ground, 
                                  G5                           D5      A5                  D5 
    hear their barking call of love for the happiness they've found. 
                                                 G5                      D5 
    Is my love still my love, oh, this I've gotta know, 
                                G5                        D5       - A5              D5 
    send a message by the wind, because I      love her so.
