[Intro]
E5
 
[Verse 1]
E5
At sixteen she quit high school to make her fortune in the promised land
          A5                           E5
She got a job behind the counter in an all-night hamburger stand
E5
She wrote faithfully home to mama, "Now mama, don't you worry none
                         B5                 E5
From small things, mama, big things one day come"
 
[Verse 2]
E5
It was late one Friday, he pulled in out of the dark
       A5                                    E5
He was tall and handsome, first she took his order then she took his heart
                                                                    C#5
They bought a house up on the hillside where little feet would soon run
     E5                  B5                 E5
From small things, mama, big things one day come
 
[Bridge]
        A5
Oh, but love was fleeting
     E5
It's sad but it's true
          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                  E5
She drove down to Tampa in an Eldorado Grand
                                                       C#5
She wrote back, "Dear mama, life is just heaven in the sun
     E5                  B5                 E5
From small things, mama, big 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                             E5
He waits high on the hillside where the Wyomie rivers roll
                                                                      C#5
At his feet and almost grown now, a blue-eyed daughter and a handsome son
     E5                  B5                 E5
From small things, mama, big things one day come
E5                       B5                 E5
From small things, mama, big things one day come
                               B5                 A5
Well, from small things, mama, big things one day come
