[Intro]
D G D A
[Strophe]
     D                          F#m 
When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall, 
   G                  D              A 
We used to love while others used to play. 
D                              F#m 
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by, 
G                  D            A 
Someone else moved in from far away.  
    G                          D 
Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small, 
    Em                        D  D7 
And you don't ask the time of day. 
    G                        D 
But you and I, our love will never die, 
    Em          G                 D   A 
But guess we'll cry come first of may.
[Strophe]
    D                        F#m 
The apple tree that grew for you and me, 
  G                  D              A 
I watched the apples falling one by one. 
D                       F#m 
And I recall the moment of them all, 
    G                 D                  A 
The day I kissed your cheek and you were mine.  
    G                          D 
Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small, 
    Em                        D  D7 
And you don't ask the time of day. 
    G                        D 
But you and I, our love will never die, 
    Em          G                 D 
But guess we'll cry come first of may.
[Outro]
     D                          F#m 
When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall, 
G           D           A 
Do do do do do do do do do... 
D                              F#m 
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by, 
G                   D            A 
Some one else moved in from far away.
