He remembers the first time he met her
CG
He remembered the first thing she said
CG
He remembered the first time he held her
A7D7
And the night that she came to his bed
GD7G
He remembers her sweet way of saying
CG
Honey has something gone wrong
CG
He remembered the fun and the teasing
D7G
And the reason he wrote her this song
D7G
I'll give you a daisy a day dear
CG
I'll give you a daisy a day
CG
I'll love you until the rivers run still
D7G
And the four winds we know blow away
D7G
They would walk down the street in the evening
CG
And for years I would see them go by
CG
And their love that was more than the clothes that they wore
A7D7
Could be seen in the gleam in their eyes
GD7G
As a kid they would take me for candy
CG
And I'd love to go tagging along
CG
We'd hold hands while we walked the corner
D7G
And the old man would sing her this song
repeat #3
D7G
Now he walks down the street in the evening
CG
And he stops by the old candy store
CG
And I somehow believe he's believing
A7D7
He's holding her hand like before
GD7G
For he feels all her love walking with him
CG
And he smiles at the things she might say
CG
Then the old man walks up to the hill top
D7G
And gives her a daisy a day
repeat #3
