Dm7 G7 C Cmaj7 C6
[Verse 1]
C
See the tree, how big it's grown,
Cmaj7 C7
but friend it hasn't been too long,
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
it wasn't big.
Dm7 G7
I laughed at her and she got mad,
Dm7 G7
the first day that she planted it,
C Cmaj7 C6
was just a twig.
[Verse 2]
C
Then the first snow came,
Cmaj7 C7
and she ran out to brush the snow away,
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
so it wouldn't die.
Dm7 G7
Came runnin' in all excited,
Dm7 G7
slipped and almost hurt herself,
C Cmaj7 C6
and I laughed till I cried.
[Verse 3]
C
She was always young at heart,
Cmaj7 C7
kinda dumb and kinda smart,
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
and I loved her so.
Dm7 G7
And I surprised her with a puppy,
Dm7 G7
kept me up all Christmas Eve,
C Cmaj7 C6
two years ago.
[Verse 4]
C
And it would sure embarrass her,
Cmaj7 C7
when I came in from workin' late,
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
'cause I would know.
Dm7 G7
That she'd been sittin' there and cryin',
Dm7 G7
Over some sad and silly,
C Cmaj7
late, late show.
[Chorus]
C6 Dm7 G7 Dm7
And honey, I miss you,
G7 C Cmaj7
and I'm bein' good.
C6 Dm7 G7 Dm7
And I'd love to be with you,
G7 C Cmaj7 C6
if only I could.
[Verse 5]
C
She wrecked the car and she was sad,
Cmaj7 C7
and so afraid that I'd be mad,
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
but what the heck.
Dm7 G7
Though I pretended hard to be,
Dm7 G7
guess you could say she saw through me,
C Cmaj7 C6
and hugged my neck.
[Verse 6]
C
I came home unexpectedly,
Cmaj7 C7
and caught her cryin' needlessly,
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
in the middle of the day.
Dm7 G7
And it was in the early spring,
Dm7 G7
when flowers bloom and robins sing,
C Cmaj7
she went away.
[Chorus]
C6 Dm7 G7 Dm7
And honey, I miss you,
G7 C Cmaj7
and I'm bein' good.
C6 Dm7 G7 Dm7
And I'd love to be with you,
G7 C Cmaj7 Em7 A7
if only I could.
[Verse 7]
D
One day while I was not at home,
Dmaj7 D7
while she was there and all alone,
Em7 A7 Em7 A7
the angels came.
Em7 A7
Now all I have is memories,
Em7 A7
of Honey and I wake up nights,
D Dmaj7 D6
and call her name.
[Verse 8]
D
Now my life's an empty stage,
Dmaj7 D7
where Honey lived and Honey played,
Em7 A7 Em7 A7
and love grew up.
Em7 A7
And a small cloud passes overhead,
Em7 A7
and cries down on the flower bed,
D Dmaj7 D6
that Honey loved.
[Verse 9]
D
And see the tree how big it's grown,
Dmaj7 D7
but friend it hasn't been too long,
Em7 A7 Em7 A7
it wasn't big.
(in fade out)
Em7 A7
And I laughed at her and she got mad,
Em7 A7
the first day that she planted it,
D Dmaj7 D6
was just a twig.
