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

II:

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

Chorus: 
             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     A#7    
If only I could

III:

    D#                  D#7M
She wrecked the car and she was sad
    D#6            D#7M
And so afraid that I'd be mad
    Fm
But what the heck
       A#7
Though I pretended hard to be
Guess you could say she saw through me
     D# 
And hugged my neck
   D#           D#7M
I came home unexpectedly
    D#6               D#7
And caught her cryin' needlessly
       Fm
In the middle of the day
    A#
And it was in the early Spring
When flowers bloom and robins sing
D#
She went away

Chorus:

             Fm
And honey, I miss you
A#            D#   D#7
And I'm bein' good
                   Fm
And I'd love to be with you
A#        D#    B7
If only I could

IV:

    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

V(fading, same chords)

    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 it, was just a twig
