[G]
[D] [F#m] [A]
[D] When I was small and [F#m] Christmas trees were tall
[G] We used to [D] laugh while others [A] used to play
[D] Don't ask me why, but [F#m] time has passed us by
[G] Someone [D] else moved in from [A] far away
[G] Now we are tall and [D] Christmas trees are small [Em] And you don't ask the [D] time of day
[G] But you and I, our [D] love will never die
[Em] To guess who'll cry, come [D] first of May
[A]
[D] The apple tree that [F#m] grew for you and me
[G] I watched the [D] apples falling one [A] by one
And [D] I recall the moment [F#m] of them all The [G] day I [D] kissed your cheek and [A] you were gone
[G] Now we are tall and Christmas [D] trees are small And [Em] you don't ask the time of day
[G] But you and I, our love [D] will never die To guess [G] who'll cry, [D] come first of May
When I was small [F#m] and Christmas trees were tall
[G] Do do [D] do do do, do do do [A] do
Don't [D] ask me why, [Am] but time has passed us by
[G] Someone else moved in from far [A#] away
