    Chords: (Capo 1st Fret)
    Intro:
    C Am
    C F Dm G
    Everyone’s born as clean as a whistle As fresh as a daisy And not a bit crazy.
    C F Am G
    Staying that way’s a hard row for hoeing. As rough as a briar, Like walking through fire.
    C Em Am F
    This world, it’s dark, And this world, it’s scary.
    C Em Am F
    I’ve taken some hits, so No wonder I’m wary.
    Dm G C Am
    It’s why I Need you You’re pure as the driven snow.
    C F Dm G
    Everyone wants to be like a hero The cake with the cream, or The doer not dreamer.
    C F
    Doing’s hard work, It takes some to change things
    Am G
    Like goat’s milk to butter, Like ice blocks to water.
    C Em Am F
    This world goes blind When children are dying.
    C Em Am F
    I turn into dust, but You never stop trying.
    Dm G F
    It’s why I Love you You’re pure as the driven snow….
    C G C Am F
    Cold and clean, Swirling over my skin, You cloak me. You soak right in, Down to my heart.
    C F Dm G
    Everyone thinks they know all about me. They slap me with labels. They spit out their fables.
    C F Am G
    You came along, you knew it was lying. You saw the ideal me, And yes, that’s the real me.
    C Em Am F
    This world, it’s cruel, With troubles aplenty.
    C Em Am F
    You asked for a reason I’ve got three and twenty
    Dm G C Am C Am
    For why I Trust you You’re pure as the driven snow.
    Dm
    That’s why I Trust you
    G C
    You’re pure as the driven snow.

      ⁠@@NirmalyaSahoo-wl6ti yes he was. Otherwise, there was no reason to bring the gun. He was justifying it to himself (that he wasn’t going to do anything) to make himself feel better. However, as with anything, actions speak much louder than rationalizations and justifications. The action he took showed he was going to kill her.

    Thank you so much for watching!! I truly hope you like this one! We definitely got more creative with it and I couldn't stop hearing strings in the arrangement, so I had my very talented friends add them to the song - and then we were having fun with dry ice when we were filming and decided to make it a little more like a music video! The last three songs I'll be doing from the book will be more stripped down and live like the first two videos I posted (the last three will be the Arena Song, The Hanging Tree, and Deep in the Meadow) But since this one was going with the two full band Covey songs, I figured I might as well go all out with it! They should be up on Spotify within the next few days! Thank you for being so patient with this one. I truly appreciate you all so much and am sending you all the love

    @beastaaj7165 4 роки тому +87

    Also guys I just have a random question - what do you think happened to Lucy gray
    My theory- Lucy gray takes snow purposely to the shed full of the weapons and tells him to not take any of them to test him to see if he chooses to run away with her to put himself at risk or to take the guns to remove all memories of his murder but put her at risk. She then says she wants to go dig up katniss and she begins to sing to manipulate him at his weakest point. Power. Snow then chases her and she makes sure the snake bites him. I think Lucy purposely made sure the snake wasn’t venomous so he would die but to just slow him down so she would escape faster without hurting him. Of course he gets mad and although he’s dizzy he shoots bullets all around him. I’m 99.9% sure she gets hit however not in the neck or head but in the ankle of hand. I think this because she screamed lightly once he shot a bullet and secondly she most likely would’ve been hit no matter how fast she is. I think as she’s dying she slowly sings the hanging tree to manipulate snows weakest point. His power. Once we mockingjays and jabberjays pick this sound up. The whole forest begins to sing it. I think it was so loud that at this point Lucy was screaming in pain and eventually died however snow never heard it because of the loud noise. He runs back and everything is canon to the books after that. But what I think happens is Ivory (Lucy’s younger cousin) or someone in the covey marries someone and become katniss’ great grandma. I think this is great theory as it shows that one of lucys relatives kills snow (like revenge) but I don’t think snow knows Lucy and katniss are related. Finally I think when Lucy gray died the covey and everyone else supposed the mayor kidnapped her and she eventually gets forgotten and replaced by the bands new head singer. Thanks for listening to my theory. I’m a new UA-camr so I would appreciate if u check my channel out ;)

    • @hiacyntabielecka1903
      @hiacyntabielecka1903 2 роки тому +7

      I think that Maude Ivory could be Katniss' gradmother from father's side. That's why he would know "The hanging tree", sing with mockingjays and love music so much. And also his mom could show him this lake in the forest - place which she knew from her childhood, and also tell him about these water plants - "katnisses". I'm convinced that that's what Suzanne Collins had in her mind and I'm really dissappointed that she didn't explain Katniss' genealogy in the end.

    • @FrakkinToasterLuvva
      @FrakkinToasterLuvva 2 роки тому +5

      I think the snake with the scarf was a goodbye message. He was a snake after all. (Not the first time she freaked someone out with a snake.)
      I wouldn't say she was trying to "manipulate" him with that final song, especially if she was dying.
      If you are right about the weapons being a test, then she was a bit manipulative before- because she waited him to go with her. If she knew where the weapons were and didn't tell him, then she was already suspecting on some level that he wouldn't go with her if he had a choice to be safe from the murders being connected to him.

    • @yeontan6745
      @yeontan6745 Рік тому

      I think snow was paranoid about Lucy coming back and that he feared that he didn’t kill her. When Katniss was reaped he didn’t think anything of it but when she sung that song to Rue, he remembered Lucy and his fear came back. As events unfolded he saw more and more of Lucy in Katniss, and when he heard the hanging tree he knew that it was her and that if he was going to die it was going to be by one of Lucy’s descendants. Lucy’s named faded for the world but as Katniss stood in front of him, Lucy was still there.

    I clicked on this and I instantly got hit in the feels because when I was reading the book and got to this part, I felt really bad. its like a TV show (for example, Clone Wars) where you see so many good characters you see later down the line, but you almost feel bad because you know how they'd turn out in the end. You captured this almost perfect, keeping it slightly with some of the word deliverance, but with an emotional tune. I listen to your songs from this over and over and I hope, somehow, you can end up as Lucy Gray Baird in the movie.

    During the song, Coriolanus refers to another poem about “Sam something” who was revived by cremation. If anyone is interested, the poem in question is “The Cremation of Sam McGee” by Robert Service and is worth reading in its own right.

    Oh my God Maiah Wynne, or should I say Lucy Gray!! Oh my.... You are truly a gem to us, Hunger Games and TBOSAS fans🤍💚 you never fail to bring us to the scenes in the book. My eyes are watering on your arrangements. It is truly emotional and heart-wrenching, heart-warming piece. Oh my God I can't stop listening. I'm crying. You really outdone this one, Maiah! I can really envision the movie now. Are you sure Suzanne Collins or Francis Lawrence hadn't still contacted you? Continue sharing your talent to the Hunger Games fandom Maiah! Oh God I love it to bits🤍🤍🤍 you're pure as the driven snow. I really felt the emotion and the love oh my God.... God bless you Maiah and goodluck to your album! My congratulations!

    My theory is that by this point, Lucy was already suspicious of Snow and only used this song to convince him that she was still on his side, knowing that his narcissism would ensure he believed it was all about him. The entire scenario at the end - the escape plan and all - was her attempt to get him away from the Covey, so that they would be safe. I think she knew that he was responsible for Sejanus and that's why she was crying at the hanging (and why she added the new lyrics to the Hanging Tree song before asking him to run away with her). I'm absolutely convinced that she planted the guns, or knew they were there, and planned the entire scenario (going to the lake, cooking the fish in the cabin, him finding the weapons) to see what he would do, in hopes that she was wrong about him, but knowing full well she probably wasn't. I think she'd begun to suspect he wasn't the innocent lamb she thought he was when they had their first argument and he was so defensive of the Capitol, and after he killed the mayor's daughter without blinking, I think she recognized that he was a sociopath. I expect Sejanus's death was the final nail in the coffin. I don't see this as much a 'sad' song because she believed him, but as confirmation that she never left the games, and was playing him the way she played the other contestants.

      I also like to think that
      Pure as the driven snow describes Coriolanus as being true to himself instead of actually being pure
