        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....
