I keep swingin' my hand through a swarm of bees;

        Am                     F   
I can't understand why they're stingin' me.

         Am
But I'll do what I want,

     F
I'll do what I please,

     Am                        F
I'll do it again 'til I've got what I need.

     Am                        F
I'll rip and smash through the hornet's nest.

        Am          F
Do you understand I deserve the best?

'Til you do what I want,

     F
I'll do what I please,

     E
I'll do it again 'til I've got what I need.

I try to stick this pin through a butterfly 'cause I

        F             Am       F       Am      F
I like all the pretty colors.

        Am               F               Am
It just fell apart, so I flung it in the fire

   F                 Am        F       Am      F
to burn with all the others
[Prechorus]
         G            F
'cause I never get it right.

No, I never get it right.

I keep swingin' my hand through a swarm of bees;

        Am                     F   
I can't understand why they're stingin' me.

         Am
But I'll do what I want,

     F
I'll do what I please,

Dm                      Am
This time, I'll get it right

This time, I'll get it right

              G                     F
It's gonna be this time I'll get it right.

               G                  F
God, let it be this time I get it right.
[Outro Chorus]
       Dm                          
So I'm cuttin' that branch off the cherry tree

         F                          Am
singin' this will be my victory then I

         G
see them comin' after me

            Dm           
and they're followin me across the sea

                F                                   Am
and now they're stingin my friends and my family and I

           G
don't know why this is happening

         F
But I'll do what I want

     F
I'll do what I please

     E
I'll do it again 'til I've got what I need

       Am                         F                    Am
I keep swingin' my hand through a swarm of bees 'cause I

       F           Am         F       End on Am
I want honey on my table.
