From Small Things Big Things One Day Come

E At sixteen she quit high school to make her fortune in the promised land A She got a job behind the counter in an E all night hamburger stand She wrote faithfully home to mama C#m "Now mama don't you worry none" E From small things, mama B E Big things one day come It was late one Friday he pulled in out of the dark A He was tall and handsome; first she E took his order, then she took his heart They bought a house on the hillside C#m Where little feet soon would run E From small things, mama B E Big things one day come A Oh but love is fleeting E it's sad but true A But when your heart is beating B You don't wanna hear the news E She packed her bags and with a Wyomie County real estate man A She ran down to Tampa E In and "El Dorado Grande" She wrote back, "Dear Mama C#m Life is just heaven in the sun E From small things, mama B E Big things one day come" Well alright... E | E | E | E | A | A | E | E | E | E | E | C#m | E | B | E A Well she shot him dead E On a sunny Florida road A When they caught her all she said B Was she couldn't stand the way he drove E Back home dear Johnny Prays for his baby's parole A He waits on the hillside E Where the Wyomie waters roll At his feet and almost grown now C#m A blue-eyed daughter and a handsome son E Well from small things, mama B E Big things one day come Well from small things, mama B E Big things one day come
