	  		Intro: Dm7 G7 C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7 

C                          Cmaj7  
See the tree, how big it's grown   
       C6	              Cmaj7	       Dm7     	     G7  Dm7 G7   
But friend, it hasn't been too long,          it wasn't big   
  Dm7                       G7  
I laughed at her and she got mad   
       Dm7		          G7	        C                 Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7  
The first day that she planted, it was just a twig   
C                             Cmaj7                   C6   
Then the first snow came and she ran out  
                     Cmaj7         Dm7                       G7  Dm7 G7  
To brush the snow away,          so it wouldn't die   
          Dm7        G7  
Came runnin' in all excited   
Dm7	               G7                        C                        Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7 
Slipped and almost hurt herself,      I laughed 'til I cried   
C                          Cmaj7 
She was always young at heart   
C6	                     Cmaj7           Dm7                         G7 Dm7 G7  
Kind a dumb and kind a smart,          and I loved her so   
       Dm7                 G7  
And I surprised her with a puppy   
Dm7      	        G7                    C                  Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7 
Kept me up all Christmas eve,     two years ago   
C                               Cmaj7 
And it would sure embarrass her   
          C6                         Cmaj7           Dm7                        G7     Dm7 G7  
When I came home from working late,         'cause I would know   
        Dm7                    G7  
That she'd been sittin' there cryin   
Dm7           G7	         C                   Cmaj7 C6   
Over some sad and silly late, late show   
       Cmaj7    Dm7        G7 Dm7        G7           C       Cmaj7 C6  
And Honey, I miss you                and I'm being good   
            Cmaj7              Dm7 G7 Dm7   G7     C        Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7 
And I'd love to be with you,                if only I could   
       C                               Cmaj7 
She wrecked the car and she was sad   
       C6                 Cmaj7          Dm7                      G7    Dm7 G7 
And so afraid that I'd be mad,            but what the heck   
             Dm7           G7  
Though I pretended hard to be   
Dm7                                  G7                       C                            Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7 
Guess you could say she saw through me,      and hugged my neck   
  C                         Cmaj7 
I came home unexpectedly   
        C6                      Cmaj7        Dm7                           G7   Dm7 G7      
And found her crying needlessly,          in middle of the day   
       Dm7            G7 
And it was in the early spring   
           Dm7                      G7                C                   Cmaj7 C6     
When flowers bloom and Robins sing,     she went away   
       Cmaj7    Dm7        G7 Dm7        G7           C       Cmaj7 C6  
And Honey, I miss you                and I'm being good   
            Cmaj7              Dm7 G7 Dm7   G7     C        Cmaj7 Em7 A7 
And I'd love to be with you,                if only I could    
        D                      Dmaj7         
One day while I was not in home   
          D6                          Dmaj7     Em7                  A7     Em7 A7 
While she was there and all alone,         the angels came   
        Em7            A7 
Now all I have is memories   
     Em7           A7                         D                      Dmaj7 D6 Dmaj7 
Of Honey, and I wake up nights,      and call her name   
D                        Dmaj7   
Now my life's an empty stage   
            D6                      Dmaj7             Em7                        A7 Em7 A7 
Where Honey lived and Honey played,         and love grew up   
            Em7                       A7 
And a small cloud passes over head   
       Em7                     A7               D                   Dmaj7 D6 Dmaj7  
And cries down in the flower bed,     that Honey loved   
         D                          Dmaj7  
Then see the tree, how big it's grown   
       D6	              Dmaj7	       Em7     	     A7  Em7 A7   
But friend, it hasn't been too long,          it wasn't big   
         Em7                        A7  
And I laughed at her and she got mad   
       Em7		          A7	        D                 Dmaj7 D6 Dmaj7 D  
The first day that she planted, it was just a twig...
