Verse 1:
       G
In the days when we were swinging from the trees
        C                            G
I was a monkey stealing honey from a swarm of bees
        G
I could taste, I could taste you even then
            C                   G
And I would chase you, down the wind

Chorus:
Em        C               G            D
You could go there if you please, wild honey
Em         C                 G        D       G
And if you go there, go with me, wild honey

Verse 2:
      G
Did I know you, did I know you even then?
           C                            G
Before the clocks kept time, before the world was made
         G                   C
From the cruel sun, you were shelter 
            G
You were my shelter and my shade

Chorus:
Em     C                 G        D
If you go there, go with me, wild honey,
Em      C                G            D
You can do just what you please, wild honey
Em         C              G            D
Yeah, just blowing in the breeze, wild honey,
Em    C     G  D
Wild, wild, wild

Verse 3:
          G       
I¹m still standing, I¹m still standing where you left me
              C                             G
Are you still growing wild, with everything tame around you?
           G             
I send you flowers, cut flowers for your hall
            C                           G          
I know your garden’s full, but is there sweetness at all?

Break:
Em      C   Am               C D
Love me so, Love me, keep me so

Chorus:
Em     C                 G        D          
If you go there, go with me, wild honey,
Em       C                G            D
Wont you take me, take me please, wild honey
Em    C                    G           D
Yeah, swinging through the trees, wild honey,
Em    C     G  D    G 
Wild, wild, wild
