[Verse 1]
C        G
   I can see you there
 C                                 G
Oh, in the snowbank with a snowman at your side
F                                  G
  And in my heart and in my spirit I concede
    F                                   Am
The things you want in life you have to really need
                    C
This is a matter of life

[Verse 2]
   G
Only parents cry
C                                          G
Oh when they want to show the world they're still alive
F                                  G
  And in my heart and in my spirit I believe
    F                                   Am
The draft beneath the doorframe comes to challenge me
                    C
This is a matter of life

[Verse 3]
       G
Oh, be kind to me
       C                           G
Oh, Benjamin who keeps his hands inside his sleeves
F                                G
And in my heart and in my spirit I can read
    F                                    Am
The way he brushed his beard against the cedar tree
                    C
Keeping his eyes upon me

[Verse 4]
      G
I can see you there
    C                              G
Oh, in the snowbank with a snowman at your side
F                                G
And in my heart and in my spirit I can see
    F                                   Am
The things you want in life you have to really need
