Tuning: Standard
Here's a version with what I think are the words he sings in the
middle of the song.
INTRO: - - - | - - – (x4)
VERSE 1:
(D) G
In the days when we were swinging from the trees
I was a monkey stealing honey from a swarm of bees
I could taste, I could taste you even then
And I would chase you down the wind
CHORUS
You could go there if you please, wild honey
And if you go there, go with me, wild honey
INTRO progression x2
VERSE 2:
Did I know you? Did I know you even then?
Before the clocks kept time, before the world was made
From the cruel sun.
You were my shelter, you were my shelter and my shade
CHORUS:
If you go there go with me, wild honey
You can do just what you please, wild honey
Yeah, just blowing in the breeze, Wild honey
Wild, wild, wild
INTRO progression x2
VERSE 3:
I'm still standing, I'm still standing where you left me
Are you still growing wild with everything tame around you?
I send you flowers, cut flowers for your hall
I know your garden is full, but is there sweetness at all
BRIDGE:
What is soul? Love me, give me soul
CHORUS:
If you go there with me, Wild honey
Won't you take me, take me please, Wild honey
Yeah, swinging through the trees, Wild honey
Em Am G D G (Intro progression x4, end on G)
Wild, wild, wild
I strum the chords like this:
1 & 2 &(3)& 4 & (1)& 2 &(3)& 4 &
D U X U U X U | U X U U D U
The X's are a rake across muted strings.
