~VERSE 2~
Repeat with these lyrics.
Don't remind me I'm a chickadee in love with the sky
But that's clearly not a lot to crow about
'Cause when the stars silhouette me
I'm scared they'll forget me and flicker out
I taste honey but I haven't seen the hive
Yeah I didn't look I didn't even try
But still my heart stops without you
'Cause there's something about you that makes me feel alive
~REPEAT CHORUS~
~BRIDGE~
Electric plays chords again.

We are the honey and the bee
C F G
Backyard of butterflies surround me

And I fell in love with you like bees to honey
C F G Am
So lets up and leave the weeping to the willow tree
C F G
And pour our tears in the sea
Am C G F G
I swear there's a lot of vegetables out there that crop up for air
C F
And yet I never thought we were two peas in a pod
Am G
'Till you suddenly bloomed I knew
F Am G F Am G
That I'd always love you oh I'll always love you too
