It might not be entirely correct, but it sounds really good to me. As always, listen to the recording to get the rhythm right. Intro: Gm Bb C Csus4 C The verse follows this pattern, but in the recording it's played with bass only. The timing of the singing is really weird, so once again, listen to the cd. Strum mosty on the 4 highest strings during the verse.

^GmAll I have is a^Bbll I need enough for l^Cove but not f^Csus4or greed yea^Ch (same as above:) I was younger once this guy came to me told me about all the honey out there He said 'honey gold jewels money women wine cars that shine' I don't know what he was talking about but I think I had an idea He said 'smell the rose, sweet sweet rose, catch the sun find where it grows, Smell the rose, the sweet rose that grows on castle walls in heaven',

In heaven yeah Well if it feels like summer you're catching the sun, and I'm catching the moment you fall, If it tastes like honey don't swallow it all, don't wait for the moment to come

^Eb7 And catch the sun ^F7

Chorus:

^C Hey d^Ebude, don't le^Fan on me m^Bban Cause I'm l^Fosing my dir^Bbection and I c^Eban't underst^Fand, no no no

^C Hey d^Ebude, well I d^Fo what I c^Bban But you tre^Fat me like a^Bb woman when I ^Ebfeel like a ^Fman

Verse:

^GmI was crossing the c^Bbity one day, everyb^Cody was flashing ^Csus4by me ^C Like images of tombstones, images of tombstones, On a Friday night I've seen everybody looking for their little bit of honey To alleviate the pain, to alleviate the pain Well if it feels like summer don't burn in the sun, don't wait for the evening fall, If it tastes like honey don't swallow it all, don't wait for the moment to come

^Eb7 And catch the sun ^F7

Chorus, and then:

^CNo, n no, n no, n^Bb no, n no, n ^Ano, n no, n no, ^Abn no no, n no ^CI can't underst^Bband... when I fe^Ael like a man, s^Abing it to me honey!
