Verse 2

(Chords Like 1)

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.

Verse 3

(Chords Like 1)

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.

Verse 4

(Chords Like 1)

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. C7M

 And I'd C6love to be Dm7with you,G7 Dm7

 if G7only I Ccould. C7M C6

Verse 5

(Chords Like 1)

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.

Verse 6

(Chords Like 1)

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.

 if G7only I CcouldC7M. Em7 A7

 of Em7Honey and I A7wake up nights,

 and Dcall her name. D7M D6

Verse 8

(Chords Like 7)

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.

Verse 9

(Chords Like 7)

And see the tree how big it's grown,

but friend it hasn't been too long,

it wasn't big.

(in Fade Out:)

And I laughed at her and she got mad,

the first day that she planted it,

was just a twig.
