Biografia:
Joseph Raymond Conniff (1916- 2002) foi um músico norte-americano, considerado o rei do Easy Listening.
Desde criança, Ray, nascido Joseph Raymond Conniff, parecia predestinado a seguir a carreira musical, já que o pai era trombonista e a mãe pianista. Foi natural, pois, que seguisse o caminho da carreira musical. Conforme Ray contava em suas entrevistas, fez um curso por correspondência, com um único dólar, que o introduziu na arte da teoria musical.

I:
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
