When I was small and Christ-mas trees were tall,
 5  -5   6  -6   -5    5  -5    6   5  -4
We used to love while oth-ers used to play,
  4    4  6   6    6   -6   7    -7   -6  6
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
 -5   6   -6   -5    5  -5   6  5 -4
Some-one else moved in from far a-way.
 6  -6  7    7   7    -7   -6    6    7    7
Now we are tall and Christ-mas trees are small,
 6   6    7    7   7   -6  -5  6
And you don't ask the time of day,
 7   7   -9 -9 -9   8    -8   7   8  8
But you and I, our love will nev-er die,
 6     6    -8   -8   -8   -7    6  4
But guess we'll cry, come First Of May.

The app-le tree that grew for you and me,
5    -5    6   -6 -5    5  -5    6  5  -4
I watched the app-les fall-ing, one by one,
 6  5  6   6   6  -6  7   -7  -6   6
And I re-call the mo-ment of them all,
 5  -5  6   -6    -5    5   -5   6   5    -4
The day I kissed your cheek and you were mine.
  4  4  6    6    6     5    4    -3    6    6
When I was small and Christ-mas trees were tall,

Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do
  4    4   6  6    6   -6   7    -7   -6  6
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
END WITH FADE
