[G]
[C]
See the tree, how big it's grown, but friend, it hasn't been too [Dm] long, it [G] wasn't big.
[Dm] I laughed at [G] her and she got mad, [Dm] the first day [G] that she planted it [C] was just a twig.
Then the first snow came and she ran out to brush the snow away, [Dm] so it wouldn't [G] die.
[Dm] Came running in, [G] all excited, [Dm] slipped [G] and almost hurt herself, [C] and I laughed till I cried.
She was always young at heart, kinda dumb and kinda smart, [Dm] and I [G] loved her so.
[Dm] And I [G] surprised her with a puppy, [Dm] kept me up [G] all Christmas Eve, [C] two years ago.

And it would sure embarrass her when I came in from working late,
[G] cause I would know _ [D] that [G] _
she'd been sitting there and crying over some sad and [C] silly late, late show.
