Bees
(Laura Cantrell)
F C
See the sign of the old hotel, we used to stay there
G C
Empty and threadbare, water running cold
F C
Searched the streets for old friends, met only strangers
G C
None who remember, none who would take me home
Em Am
I miss the bees, I miss the honey
Dm C
I miss them humming by the flowered vine
Em Am
My time is short now, I feel it coming
Dm C
I’ll see you darling in the morning light
F C
Spent an hour in the waiting room of our old headquarters
G C
None brought my orders I rode on alone
F C
With my portrait missing from their hall of honor
G C
No frame to claim me in silver black and gold
Em Am
Lost in the afternoon missing an hour or two
Dm C G
Turn the crystal set never failed me yet
Em Am
No voice to say goodbye, tears on my face have dried
Dm C G
I’ll be coming through on that wavelength a heart can tune
Em Am
I miss the bees, I miss the honey
Dm C
I miss them humming by the flowered vine
Em Am
My time is short now, I feel it coming
Dm C
I’ll see you darling in the morning light
Em Am
No voice to say goodbye, tears on my face have dried
Dm C G
I’ll be coming through on that wavelength a heart can tune
Em Am
I miss the bees, I miss the honey
Dm C
I miss them humming by the flowered vine
Em Am
My time is short now, I feel it coming
Dm C
I’ll see you darling in the morning light
