And I waDmke up in the Dm/C#mornin'
with my Dm/Chair down in my G7eyes and she says "CHi"
And I stDmumble to the Dm/C#breakfast table
while the Dm/Ckids are goin' off to G7school goodCbye
And she reC7aches out and takes my hand
and squeezes it and says "How ya feFelin', hon?"
And I lDmook across at Gsmilin' lips
that wDmarm my heart and Gsee my Cmornin' sun
And if that's not lDmovin' meG  Dm  G  
then all I've gDmot to sayG  Dm  G  
CGod didn't make little green apples
and it don't rain in Indianapolis in the sDmummertGimeDm  G  
And there's nDmo such thing as DoGctor Seuss
or DisneDmyland, and MoGther Goose, no nurserCy rhyme
CGod didn't make little green apples
and it don't rain in Indianapolis in the suDmmmertimGeDm  G  
And whDmen my self is feelin' Glow
I thiDmnk about her facGe aglow and eaCse my mind
DmSometDm/C#imes I call heDm/Cr up at G7home kCnowin' she's busy
and Dmask her iDm/C#f she could get away and Dm/Cmeet me
and mG7aybe we could grab a Cbite to eat
And she dC7rops what she's doin' and she hurries down to meet me
and I'm aFlways late
But she sDmits waitin' patiently and smiles when she first sees me
'cause she's maCde that way
And if that's not lDmovin' meG  Dm  G  
then all I've gDmot to saGyDm  G  
CGod didn't make little green apples
and it don't snow in Minneapolis when the winDmter comGesDm  G  
And there's Dmno such thing as maGke believe,
puppy dogsDm, autumn leGaves and BCB guns
CGod didn't make little green apples
And it don't rain in Indianapolis....

Dm Dm/C#

And I wake up in the mornin'

Dm/C G7 C

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

Dm Dm/C#

And I stumble to the breakfast table

Dm/C G7 C

while the kids are goin' off to school goodbye

And she reaches out and takes my hand

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

Dm G

And I look across at smilin' lips

Dm G 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

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

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 Dm/C# Dm/C G7 C

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

Dm Dm/C# Dm/C

and ask her if she could get away and meet me

G7 C

and maybe we could grab a bite to eat

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

and I'm always late

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

'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

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

God didn't make little green apples

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