[Intro] G G G G [Verse 1] (Randy Travis)
G
I was ten years old on my grandpa's farm when it happened

                                               D
After all these years I can still hear grandpa laughin'

        G
As he applied that barnyard remedy

   C
He passed his wisdom down to me

    G
You don't reach for the honey

[Verse 2] (Clint Eastwood)
G
I remember my first crush was on the preacher's daughter

                                                              D
We were smoochin' on the front porch swing that night when he caught her

           G
We weren't expectin' him home until quarter past ten

         C
When the good Lord taught me that lesson again

    G
You don't reach for the honey

[Chorus] (Randy and Clint)
          C                                       G
You don't point your pistol before you check each chamber

        D                                       G
And you don't drink no you don't drink when you drive

          C                                   G     D  Em
It's just ordinary common sense to avoid that danger

    G
You don't reach for the honey

[Verse 3] (Randy and Clint)
G
She rolled into town with rodeo, she was a beauty

                                               D
And that cowboy saw you wink at her, she was a cutie

             G
The sound of jinglin' spurs caught me dead on a run

       C
He was fit to be tied and you were under the gun

    G
You don't reach for the honey
