From Small Things Big Things One Day Come

E5

[Verse 1]
E5
At sixteen she quit high school to 
make her fortune in the promised 
land
          A5                       
She got a job behind the counter in
    E5
 an all-night hamburger stand
E5
She wrote faithfully home to mama, 
"Now mama, don't you worry none
                         B5        
From small things, mama, big things
         E5
 one day come"

[Verse 2]
E5
It was late one Friday, he pulled in
 out of the dark
       A5                          
He was tall and handsome, first she
          E5
 took his order then she took his 
heart
They bought a house up on the 
hillside where little feet would 
     C#5
soon run
     E5                  B5       
From small things, mama, big 
          E5
things one day come

[Bridge]
        A5
Oh, but love was fleeting
     E5
It's sad but it's true
Continues after the ad
          A5
When your heart is beating
    B5
You don't want to hear the news

[Verse 3]
    E5
She packed her bags and with a 
Wyomie County real state man
          A5                 
She drove down to Tampa in an 
 E5
Eldorado Grand
She wrote back, "Dear mama, life is 
                   C#5
just heaven in the sun
     E5                  B5       
From small things, mama, big 
          E5
things one day come"

[Bridge]
          A5
Well, she shot him dead
     E5
On a sunny Florida road
          A5
When they caught her all she said
                 B5
Was she couldn't stand the way he 
drove

[Verse 4]
     E5
Back home, lonesome Johnny waits for
 his baby's parole
         A5                        
He waits high on the hillside where
     E5
 the Wyomie rivers roll
At his feet and almost grown now, a 
blue-eyed daughter and a handsome 
C#5
son
     E5                  B5       
From small things, mama, big 
          E5
things one day come
E5                       B5      
From small things, mama, big 
           E5
things one day come
                               B5  
Well, from small things, mama, big 
               A5
things one day come
