Couplet
CSee the tree, how big it's grown,
but Cmaj7friend it C7hasn't been too long,
it Dm7wasn't G7big. Dm7 G7
Dm7I laughed at her G7and she got mad,
the Dm7first day that G7she planted it,
was Cjust a Cmaj7twig. C6
Then the first snow came,
and she ran out to brush the snow away,
so it wouldn't die.
Came runnin' in all excited,
slipped and almost hurt herself,
and I laughed till I cried.
She was always young at heart,
kinda dumb and kinda smart,
and I loved her so.
And I surprised her with a puppy,
kept me up all Christmas Eve,
two years ago.
And it would sure embarrass her,
when I came in from workin' late,
'cause I would know.
That she'd been sittin' there and cryin',
Over some sad and silly,
Clate, late show. Cmaj7
Refrain
And C6honey, Dm7I miss G7you, Dm7
and G7I'm Cbein' Cmaj7good.
And I'd C6love to Dm7be with G7you, Dm7
if G7only CI Cmaj7could. C6
Couplet
She wrecked the car and she was sad,
and so afraid that I'd be mad,
but what the heck.
Though I pretended hard to be,
guess you could say she saw through me,
and hugged my neck.
I came home unexpectedly,
and caught her cryin' needlessly,
in the middle of the day.
And it was in the early spring,
when flowers bloom and robins sing,
she went away.
Refrain
And C6honey, Dm7I miss G7you, Dm7
and G7I'm Cbein' Cmaj7good.
And I'd C6love to Dm7be with G7you, Dm7
if G7only CI Cmaj7could. Em7 A7

Couplet
One Dday while I was not at home,
while Dmaj7she was there D7and all alone,
the Em7angels A7came. Em7 A7
Now Em7all I have A7is memories,
of Em7Honey and A7I wake up nights,
and Dcall her Dmaj7name. D6
Now my life's an empty stage,
where Honey lived and Honey played,
and love grew up.
And a small cloud passes overhead,
and cries down on the flower bed,
that Honey loved.
Couplet
And see the tree how big it's grown,
but friend it hasn't been too long,
it Dm7wasn't G7big. Dm7 G7
En diminuant
And I laughed at her and she got mad,
the first day that she planted it,
was just a twig.
