Beekeeper

F F#

[Verse 1]

F                Eb                         Bb   F#
In the middle of everything, I started to see
F                   Eb                       Bb       F#
You said you were a beekeeper, but I heard no bees

F           Eb                      Bb    F#
I asked you where do you get your honey
F                      Eb                      Gm
You said darling I'm a beekeeper, I'm up to my knees

[Verse 2]

F                Eb                         Bb   F#
Oh I'm a lonely sailor on a sinking boat
F                      Eb                         Bb   F#
Sometimes I think I'm a mermaid but I never float
F            Eb                         Bb   F#
You asked me why I didn't send you a note
F                      Eb                     Gm
I threw my pen in the gutter board with what I wrote

[Chorus 1]

Cm           F                   Eb
Oh, oh, just like a dove on a bay riverside with a little black crow
Cm         F                       Eb
Wanna know all of the ribs on your cage
Cm       F              Eb
Tell you that a part of me lives in you, and I'm a goddamn fool
Continues after the ad
Cm             F                     Eb
Make your move or get out of the game

F  Eb  Bb   F#

[Verse 3]

F                 Eb                       Bb   F#
At the end of the tunnel I can see the light
F                         Eb                 Bb   F#
I promised you I wouldn't go down without a fight
F                Eb                 Bb   F#
I know it won't always be black and white
F                           Eb                         Gm
'Cause there are demons and things that go bump in the night

[Verse 4]

F  Eb                    Bb   F#
So swallow your bitter pill
F                   Eb                             Bb     F#
You said you were a thrill seeker but what's your thrill?
F                Eb                           Bb     F#
It's the way you walk, it's the way you stand still
F                    Eb                    Gm
And the way that you look at me and always will

[Chorus 2]

Cm   F                            Eb
Hey, today's the day, are you ready to fall, are you ready to jump
Cm           F                      Eb
From a plane with a stranger on your back
Cm   F                    Eb
High in the sky, you look back and where am I at - I'm a man in disguise
Cm          F                     Eb
Tongue-tied, you started to crack

[Bridge]

C                        F
Started to crack and the sky's turning black
         Eb
And I'm stuck in you like a thumbtack
C                      F
Between my legs and my arms you're alarmed
    Eb
And I won't hurt you - just want to charm you

C                      F
Wanna be there, and I wanna be there
   Eb
I won't let you go
C           F
A beekeeper through a seeker
Eb
Hit the ground running, "Told you so..."
