             F
You're gonna leave
             C
I better get used to that
                  F
I thought I might watch your back
        C
All the time
         F
You introduced me to
               C
The whole wide world, who
              F
Lights up the way I do
                 C
When you walk up smiling


[Verse 2]

F C F C F C F C
              F
Open me right up
                C
Find the joy of way too much
                 F
Find the pain in never enough
              C
Dancin’ their dance
       F
Arm in arm
         C
Circling 'round this room
               F
Like the sun a'chasing the moon
                 C
Yeah you open me up


[Chorus]
          G          C
I’m in my bare feet, standing in the clover
F                 C
I got you buzzing around my head
        G       C
I don't care if I get stung
      F                   C
For a little bit of honey on my tongue
      F                   C
For a little bit of honey on my tonguе


[Verse 3]

F C F C F C F C
                 F
You can't keep a secret
                     C
Or leavе a keepsake on the shelf
             F
Every little bit of yourself
            C
You give it away
              F
Is it mine to tell
                   C
That you oughta go carefully
                F
Baby leave that care to me
              C
Run along and play


[Chorus]
          G          C
I’m in my bare feet, standing in the clover
F                 C
I got you buzzing around my head
        G       C
I don't care if I get stung
      F                   C
For a little bit of honey on my tongue

      G          C
In my bare feet, standing in the clover
F                 C
I got you buzzing around my head
        G       C
I don't care if I get stung
      F                   C
For a little bit of honey on my tongue
      F                   C
For a little bit of honey on my tongue
      F                   C
For a little bit of honey on my tongue

[Outro]
             F
You're gonna leave
             C
I better get used to that
                  F
I thought I might watch your back
        C
All the time
