  SO THE TREE WAS MADE - AND I GUESS YOU'VE HEARD -

  NEXT, THEY MADE A BIRD.

  

  

  NOW THEY WAITED 'ROUND - TILL THE END OF SPRING

  SAVIN' EVERY NOTE - THE BIRD DID SING.

  

  THEN THEY ROLLED IT IN - UP IN ONE SWEET TONE,

  FOR MY HONEY-COMB.

  

  

  (verse - 3)

  IN A LITTLE WHILE - WHEN THEY MADE THAT BIRD,

  THEY LOOKED AROUND - FOR A LITTLE WORD,

  

  IT SOUNDED SWEET - LIKE TURTLE-DOVE,

  SO, THEY CALLED IT - LOVE.

  

  

  THEN, THEY WENT AROUND - LOOKING EVERY-WHERE,

  TAKIN' LOVE FROM HERE - 'N' LOVE FROM THERE,

  

  AND THEY STORED IT UP - IN A LITTLE CART,

  FOR MY BABY'S HEART.

  

  prolog:

  Jimmy had a promising career with Honey Comb.  His career was ended as the

  result of brain trama in a senseless mugging in Los Angeles.

  

  Jimmy's guitar style was elegant in it's simplicity.  He just tuned to an

  open "E" and "barred" the strings.  No 7' s or minor's or dim's, just major

  chords.  

  

  1st string "E", second string "B", third string "G#", 4th string "E", 5th

  string "A", 6th string "E".
