[Dm] [G]
[C]
See the tree how big it's grown, but friend it hasn't been too long [Dm] it wasn't [G] big
[Dm] I [G]
[Dm] laughed at her [G] and she got mad [Dm] the first day that she [G] planted it [C] was just a twig
Then the first snow came and she ran up to brush the snow away
[Dm] So it wouldn't die
[G] [Dm] Came [G]
[Dm] running in [G] all excited
[Dm] Slipped and [G] almost hurt herself [C] and I left till I cried
She was always young at heart kind of dumb and kind of smart [Dm] and I [G] loved her so [Dm] and
[G]
[F] I surprised [G] her with a puppy [Dm] kept me up all [G] Christmas Eve
[C] two years ago and
It would sure embarrass her when I came in from working late
[G] Cause I would know
[Dm] That [G]
she'd been sitting there and crying
over some sad and [C] silly late late show and
Honey, I [Dm] miss you [G] [Dm] and
[G]
I'm [C] being good
And I'd love to be [G] with you
[Dm] If [G]
only [C] I could
She wrecked the car and she was sad and so afraid that I'd be mad
[Dm] But what [G] the heck?
[Dm] [G]
[Dm] Though I pretended [G] hard to be [Dm] guess you could say [G] she saw through me [C] and hugged my neck.
I
Came home
Unexpectedly and caught her crying needlessly [Dm] in the middle [G] of the day [Dm] [G] and
[D] It [F] was [G] in the early [F] spring when flowers [G] bloom and Robin [C] sings.
She went away and
Honey, [Dm] I miss [G] you [Dm] and
[G]
[C] I'm being good
And I'd love [Dm] to be with [Em] you
[B] [Dm] If [G]
only [C] I could
[Em] One [A]
[D] day while I was not at home while she was there and all [Em] alone
the angels [A] came
[Em] [A] Now [Em] all [A] I have is memories [Em] of honey and I [A] wake up [D] nights and call her name
Now my life's an empty stage where honey lived and honey played [Em] and love grew [A] up
[Em] [A]
[Em] And a small cloud [A] passes overhead [Em] and cries [A] down on the flower bed [D] that honey loved
And see the tree how big it's grown but friend it hasn't been too [Em] long it [A] wasn't big
[Em] And [A]
[Em] I laughed at her [A] and she got [Em] mad the first day that she [A] planted it [D] was just a twig
