CSee the tree, how big it’s grown, but friend, it hasn’t been too long, it Dmwasn’t big. G Dm G I Dmlaughed at her and Gshe got mad, the Dmfirst day that she Gplanted it, was Cjust a twig.
CThen the first snow came and she ran out, to brush the snow away, so it Dmwouldn’t die. G Dm G Came Dmrunnin’ in, Gall excited, Dmslipped and almost Ghurt herself, and I Claughed till I cried.
CShe was always young at heart, kind-a dumb and kind-a smart, and I Dmloved her so. G Dm G And DmI surprised her Gwith a puppy, Dmkept me up all GChristmas Eve, Ctwo years ago.
And Cit would sure embarrass her, when I came in from working late, ‘cause DmI would know, G Dm G that Dmshe’d been sittin’ Gthere and cryin’ Dm over some Gsad and silly Clate late show.
And Honey, I Dmmiss you, G Dm and I’m being Cgood. And I’d love to be Dmwith you, G Dm if Gonly I Ccould.
She Cwrecked the car and she was sad, and so afraid that I’d be mad, but Dmwhat the heck. G Dm G Though DmI pretended Ghard to be, guess Dmyou could say she Gsaw through me, and Chugged my neck.
I Ccame home unexpectedly, and found her crying needlessly, in the Dmmiddle of the day. D Dm G And Dmit was in the Gearly spring, when Dmflowers bloom and Grobins sing, she Cwent away.
And Honey, I Dmmiss you, G Dm and I’m being Cgood. And I’d love to be Dmwith you, G Dm if Gonly I Ccould.
One Cday while I was not at home, while she was there and all alone, the Dmangels came. G Dm G Now Dmall I have is Gmemories, of DmHoney, and I Gwake up nights and Ccall her name.
CNow my life’s an empty stage, where Honey lived and Honey played and Dmlove grew up G Dm G A Dmsmall cloud passes Goverhead, and Dmcries down in the Gflower bed, thatC honey loved.
And CSee the tree, how big it’s grown but, friend, it hasn’t been too long, it Dmwasn’t big. G Dm G I Dmlaughed at her and Gshe got mad, the Dmfirst day that she Gplanted it was Cjust a twig.
