D                 D7M
See the tree, how big it's grown
    D6               D7M
But friend it hasn't been too long
   Em
It wasn't big
  A7
I laughed at her and she got mad
                                              D
The first day that she planted it, was just a twig
D                   D7M
Then the first snow came
            D6               D7M
And she ran out to brush the snow away
   Em
So it wouldn't die
A7
Came runnin' in all excited

Slipped and almost hurt herself
      D
And I laughed till I cried

D              D7M
She was always young at heart
D6                   D7M                 Em
Kinda dumb and kinda smart and I loved her so
A7
And I surprised her with a puppy
                                 D
Kept me up all Christmas Eve two years ago
D                 D7M
And it would sure embarrass her
D6                  D7M
When I came in from workin' late
Em
'Cause I would know
A7
That she'd been sittin' there and cryin'
                        D
Over some sad and silly late, late show

             Em
And honey, I miss you
A             D   D7
And I'm bein' good
                   Em
And I'd love to be with you
A         D     Bb7   
If only I could

    Eb                  Eb7M
She wrecked the car and she was sad
    Eb6            Eb7M
And so afraid that I'd be mad
    Fm
But what the heck
       Bb7
Though I pretended hard to be
Guess you could say she saw through me
     Eb
And hugged my neck
   Eb           Eb7M
I came home unexpectedly
    Eb6               Eb7
And caught her cryin' needlessly
       Fm
In the middle of the day
    Bb
And it was in the early Spring
When flowers bloom and robins sing
Eb
She went away

             Fm
And honey, I miss you
Bb            Eb   Eb7
And I'm bein' good
                   Fm
And I'd love to be with you
Bb        Eb    B7
If only I could

    E               E7M
One day while I was not at home
      E6                E7M
While she was there and all alone
    F#m
The angels came
     B          
Now all I have is memories of Honey
                         E
And I wake up nights and call her name
    E                  E7M
Now my life's an empty stage
      E6              E7M
Where Honey lived and Honey played
    F#m
And love grew up
      B
And a small cloud passes overhead
    B7
And cries down on the flower bed
     E
That Honey loved

             Em
And honey, I miss you
A             D   D7
And I'm bein' good
                   Em
And I'd love to be with you
A         D     Bb7    
If only I could

    E                E7M
And see the tree how big it's grown
    E6               E7M
But friend it hasn't been too long
   F#m
It wasn't big
      B    
And I laughed at her and she got mad
    B7                         E   
The first day that she planted
