(CHORUS)
How did it happen that he got so tall
Wasnt it yesterday he was still small
Beneath that big Montana Sky
is the place I want to be
Just before that when youd rock him to sleep
They say beautys in the eye
and its whats beautiful to me
And wonder about what hed grow up to be
There are so many reasons why
just look around and you will see
MIDDLE
How is it so many years have gone by
With each day that passes by let me live
Until I die beneath that big Montana sky
(Repeat CHORUS)
MIDDLE
Wasnt it only the blink of an eye
You turned for a moment and next thing you knew
Ive been all around this country
from each sea to shining sea
MIDDLE
Hes standing with her and saying I do
Ive seen people who are grateful
for the fact that they are free
CHORUS
But wasnt it always the plan
That he would grow to a man
I see their appreciation
in each face as I pass by
CHORUS
And then find someone too
Just like his father found you
For the beauty that God gave us
like that big Montana sky
CHORUS
And then youd watch him go
But in your heart youd still know
Ive seen the alabaster cities
where the concrete canyons reign
CHORUS
Hell always be -Your baby boy
Ive seen purple mountain majesties
and the amber waves of grain
And they fill my heart with wonder
still its hard to justify
You still remember the mornings alone
Saying anythings more beautiful
than that big Montana sky
Before there was school to take him from home
(Repeat CHORUS)
You taught him all the things He should know
When it was time You watched him go
MIDDLE2
Then waited till later When he would return
TO tell you about all the new things he learned
Youd listen to everything he had to say
Then do it again the very next day
(REPEAT CHORUS)
(REPEAT MIDDLE THEN CHORUS)
