[Verse 1]

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

[Verse 2]

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

[Verse 3]

       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...

[Solo]

E | E | E | E | A | A | E | E | E | E | E | C#m | E | B | E

[Verse 4]

         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

[End]
