[Intro 1]
[C][Dm][G][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]See the tree,
how big it's grown,
But friend, it hasn't been too long,
[Dm]It wasn't bi[G]g.[Dm][G]
I [Dm]laughed at her and she [G]got mad,
The [Dm]first day that she planted [G]it,
[C]It was just a twig
Then the first snow came
and she ran out to brush the snow away
[Dm]So it wouldn't d[G]ie[Dm][G]
Came [Dm]running in, all [G]excited
[Dm]Slipped and almost [D]hurt her[G]self
I [C]laughed till I cried
She was always young at heart
Kinda dumb and kinda smart,
[Dm]and I loved [G]her [Dm]so[G]
[Dm]I surprised her wi[G]th a puppy,
[Dm]kept me up on Christmas Eve
[G]Two[C] years ago
And it would sure embarrass her
when I come home from workin' late
[Dm]Cause I would [G]know
[Dm]That [G]she[Dm]'d been sitting
there [G]and crying
Over [Dm]some sad [G]and silly [C]late, show
And, [Dm]honey, I [G]miss you
And I'm being [C]good
And I'd [Dm]love to be [G]with [Dm]you
[G]If only I [C]could
She wrecked the car and she was sad
And so afraid that I'd be mad
[Dm]But [G]what the h[Dm]eck?[G]
Though [Dm]I pretended hard to be
[G]I g[Dm]uess you could say s[G]he saw
through me
[C]And hugged my neck
I came home unexpectedly
And found her cryin' needlessly
[Dm]in the middle of[G] the d[Dm]ay
[G]And [Dm]it was in the early sp[G]ring
when [Dm]flowers bloom and [G]robins sing
[C]She went away
And [Dm]honey, I [G]miss you
And I'm [C]bein' good
And I'd love [Dm]to be with yo[G]u,
[Dm]if only [G]I co[C]uld
[Em]Oh, [A]one [D]day while I wasn't home,
but she was there
And all along [Em]the angels c[A]ame[Em][A]
Now [Em]all I have i[A]s memories of honey,
[Em]and I wake up ni[A]ghts and call [D]her name.
Now my life's an empty stage
where honey lives and honey plays,
[Em]and love grew [A]up .[Em]
[A]A s[Em]mall cloud passes o[A]verhead
and [Em]cries down in [A]a flowerbed
[D]that honey loved.
And see the tree, how big it's grown,
but friend, it hasn't been too long,
[Em]and it wasn't [A]big.[Em][A]
And [Em]she was always young a[A]t heart,
kinda [Em]dumb, kinda [A]smart,
and [D]I loved her so. you
