Intro: D
D
I've been looking for a sweeter side
Looking for a big bloom on a short vine
                G
Looking for a better way of life

                           D
Somewhere that I can call home

D
Spent my time at a peach stand
Sun beatin' like a stinging red tan
                 G
Like the back of my daddy's hand

                           D
The only thing I've ever known

                A
I can hear the bees buzzin' through the walls

               G                      D
Making their honey and singing their song

            A
They say I work for the queen all day

         G                      D
Yeah, I work for the queen all day

G       D          G     D
  Ohhhh...          Ohhhh...

D
Sometimes it's a bitter taste
For a motherless child so out of place
                   G           A
I never understood why she ran away

                 D
Maybe I'll never know

 D
But there's a light shinin' through the trees
And a restless hum that's calling me
                   G             A
I could almost be carried by the breeze

                            D
And let it take me where it goes

                A
I can hear the bees buzzin' through the walls

               G                      D
Making their honey and singing their song

            A
They say I work for the queen all day

         G                      D
Yeah, I work for the queen all day

G       D          G     D
  Ohhhh...          Ohhhh...

G       D          G     D
  Ohhhh...          Ohhhh...

D
Now I'm standing on the front porch
Kettle whistling through the screen door
                   G           A
Little footsteps on the kitchen floor

                        D
Pretty soon we're gonna eat

D
Some things come right away
Some seem to take forever and a day
                      G           A
All I know is that it worked out either way

                  D
I think I found a family

                A
I can hear the bees buzzin' through the walls

               G                      D
Making their honey and singing their song

            A
They say I work for the queen all day

         G                      D
Yeah, I work for the queen all day

                A
I can hear the bees buzzin' through the walls

               G                      D
Making their honey and singing their song

            A
They say I work for the queen all day

         G                      D
Yeah, I work for the queen all day

G       D          G     D
  Ohhhh...          Ohhhh...

G       D          G     D
  Ohhhh...          Ohhhh...
