Dm

And I wake up in the mornin'

C

with my hair down in my eyes and she says "Hi"

Dm

And I stumble to the breakfast table

C

while the kids are goin' off to school goodbye

C7

And she reaches out and takes my hand

Dm

and squeezes it and says "How ya feelin', hon?"

G7

And I look across at smilin' lips

C

that warm my heart and see my mornin' sun

Dm G Dm G

And if that's not lovin' me

Dm G Dm G

then all I've got to say

C

God didn't make little green apples

Dm G Dm G

and it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime

Dm G

And there's no such thing as Doctor Seuss

Dm G C

or Disneyland, and Mother Goose, no nursery rhyme

C

God didn't make little green apples

Dm G Dm G

and it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime

Dm G

And when my self is feelin' low

Dm G C

I think about her face aglow and ease my mind

Dm C

Sometimes I call her up at home knowin' she's busy

Dm

and ask her if she could get away and meet me

C

and maybe we could grab a bite to eat

C7

And she drops what she's doin' and she hurries down to meet me

Dm

and I'm always late

G7

But she sits waitin' patiently and smiles when she first sees me

C

'cause she's made that way

Dm G Dm G

And if that's not lovin' me

Dm G Dm G

then all I've got to say

C

God didn't make little green apples

Dm G Dm G

and it don't snow in Minneapolis when the winter comes

Dm G

And there's no such thing as make believe,

Dm G C

puppy dogs, autumn leaves and BB guns

C

God didn't make little green apples

And it don't rain in Indianapolis....
