Chords

[Verse 1]
F#
Well it's a darn good life And it's kinda funny

               B
How the Lord made the bee And the bee made the honey

              Db
And the honeybee lookin' for a home

F#
         And they called it honeycomb

               F#
And they roamed the world and they gathered all

            B
Of the honeycomb into one sweet ball

              Db
And the honeycomb from a million trips

F#
      Made my baby's lips
[Chorus]
       B
Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby

         F#
Well, Honeycomb, be my own

          Db
Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone

F#
       And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb

          B
Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby

          F#
Well, Honeycomb, be my own

             Db
What a darn good life

                                          F#
When you got a wife like Honeycomb
[Verse 2]
G
Honeycomb
And the Lord said now that I made a bee
                  C
I'm gonna look all around for a green, green tree

             D
And He made a little tree and I guess you heard

G
         Oh, then well he made a little bird

                G
And they waited all around till the end of Spring

           C
Gettin' every note that the birdie'd sing

              D
And they put 'em all into one sweet tome

G
      For my Honeycomb
[Chorus]
       C
Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby

         G
Well, Honeycomb, be my own

         D
Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone

                    G
And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb

          C
Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby

          G
Well, Honeycomb, be my own

             D
What a darn good life When you got a wife like

G
Honeycomb
[Verse 3]
Ab
Honeycomb
And the Lord says now that I made a bird
                 Db
I'm gonna look all round for a little ol' word

        Eb
That sounds about sweet like "turtledove"

Ab
        And I guess I'm gonna call it "love"

              Ab
And He roamed the world lookin' everywhere

           Db
Gettin' love from here, love from there

             Eb
And He put it all in a little ol' part

Ab
      Of my baby's heart
[Chorus]
       Db
Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby

         Ab
Well, Honeycomb, be my own

          Eb
Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone

                     Ab
And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb

          Db
Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby

          Ab
Well, Honeycomb, be my own

             Eb
What a darn good life

                                               Ab
