We had that treehouse over on Piedmont
Flying high on a backyard rope swing
Then we’d sit on the front porch on Garmon
Waitin' on what the summer would bring
You’d watch those hummingbirds fly to the feeders
Then take off runnin' from the sound of their wings
ChorusOh, Cody, you could always make me laugh
Even when I was mad or I wanted to cry
You were hilarious, so brilliant and bright
My little brother, you pulled me through the night
I wish I had told you before you had to leave
Being your big sister is the greatest blessing to me
Verse 2I can still feel my hands grasping your arm
On the Intimidator down at Carowinds
Now I stare at mama and daddy’s couch
Wishing we could sit and talk about our lives again
I miss your big personality filling the room
I miss your smile and feeling supported by you
ChorusOh, Cody, you could always make me laugh
Even when I was mad or I wanted to cry
You were hilarious, so brilliant and bright
My little brother, you pulled me through the night
I wish I had told you before you had to leave
Being your big sister is the greatest blessing to me
BridgeYou taught me to live out loud with no regrets
To be who I am, no matter what comes next
Even if the people around me don't understand
To love the ones you're with and be a steady hand
Final ChorusOh, Cody, you could always make me laugh
Even when I was mad or I wanted to cry
You were hilarious, so brilliant and bright
My little brother, you pulled me through the night
I wish I had told you before you had to leave
Being your big sister is the greatest blessing to me
Yeah, I'll live out loud, just like you taught me to be
