Selected Poems Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[F]Honey bee, she say I g[C]ot too
[Em]much sympathy.
But I can call her any[Am]time.[G][F]
And if you're lost and you [C]need
a little peace [Em]from me,
Bring all your trouble [Am]by[G][F]
Honey bee, [C]how have I hurt [Em]you?
C'mon tell your blues to [Am]me.[G][F]
Maybe I should live [C]up there
in [Em]the curtains,
On the wings [Am]of Mer[G]cury.
[F]

[Verse 2]
I was [Am]fortunately desperate
and [Em]turbulently innocent.
I was [F]living underneath my body [C]weight.
My [Am]eyes were swollen green and hazy,
sick from [Em]grief and hate and envy,
I was [F]crawling up inside my [Em]head.

[Verse 3]
And all I seemed [C]to find is that
[G]everything has [Am]chains.
And all this life just [F]feels like
[G]a series of [Am]dreams.
Selected poems and [C]lovers I
[G]can't begin [F]to name.
And all in all I [C]find that [G]nothing
stays the [C]same.

[Verse 4]
And I was [C]crazy [Am]like the moon for you
and [Em]head over my heels for you.
And [F]never would I change or
comprom[C]ise.
[Am]But something in my mind does things
I [Em]can't contain for anything.
Last [F]night I don't think sleep
even touched my [Em]eyes.

[Verse 5]
And all I seemed [C]to find is that
[G]everything has [Am]chains.
And all this life just [F]feels like
[G]a series of [Am]dreams.
Selected poems and [C]lovers I
[G]can't begin [F]to name.
And all in all I [C]find that [G]nothing stays [C]the same.
[Em][C][G]

[Am][C][G][F][C][G]

[Verse 6]
And all I seem [C]to find is how
[G]everything has [Am]chains.
And all my life just [F]feels like
an [G]idiot [Am]dream.
Selected poems and [C]lovers I
[G]never seen [F]again.
And all in all I [C]find that [G]nothing stays the same.
