G 
See the
tree,
how big it's grown
But friend, it hasn't been too long
Am 
It wasn't big
D 
Am 
D 
Am 
An d  I laughed at him
D 
Am 
And he got mad the first
D 
day that he planted it
G 
It was just a twig
Then the first snow came
And he ran out to brush the snow away
Am 
D 
Am 
So it wouldn't die
D 
Am 
D 
Came run ning in all excited
Am 
D 
Slipped and almost hurt himself
G 
And  I laughed till I cried
He was always young at heart
Kinda dumb, kinda smart
Am 
D 
Am 
And   I loved him so
D 
Am 
D 
And I surprised him with a puppy
Am 
D 
Kept us up all Christmas Eve
G 
Two years ago
And it would sure embarrass me
when he'd come in from workin' late
Am 
D 
Am 
Cause he'd always know
D 
Am

Am 
If I'd been sittin' there cryin' over
D

some sad and silly late, show

G 
And I'm being good,
Am 
D 
and I'd love to be with you,
Am 
D 
G 
if only I could.
He wrecked the car and he was sad,
and so afraid that I'd be mad.
Am 
D 
Am 
But what the heck?
D 
Am 
D 
Though I pretend it hard to be
Am 
D 
Guess he could say he saw through me
G 
And hugged my neck
He came home unexpectedly
And caught me crying needlessly
Am 
D 
Am 
In the middle of the day
D 
Am 
D 
And it was in the early spring
Am 
when flowers bloom
D 
G 
and robins sing, he went away
Am 
D 
Am 
And honey, I miss you,
D 
G 
and I'm being good
Am 
And I'd love to be with you,
D 
Am

Bm 
E 
if only I could
A 
One day when I was not around
and he was there all alone
Bm 
E 
Bm 
The angels came
E 
Bm 
E 
Bm 
Now all I have are memories of hon ey
E 
A 
And I wake up nights and call his name
Now my life's an empty stage
Where honey lived and honey played
Bm 
E 
Bm 
And   love grew up
E 
Bm 
E 
And a small cloud passes overhead
Bm 
And cries down on the floor,
E 
A 
baby, that honey love
And see the tree, how big it's grown
But friend, it hasn't been too long,
Bm 
E 
Bm 
it wasn't
E 
Bm 
And I laughed at him
E 
Bm 
when he got mad the first
E 
day that he planted it.
