Play this 7 times per verse, twice per line and on last line strike
the D and mute it til the singer's done, then play the riff once
D7 G7 D7 G7
Standing on the back of that train with your open arms
D7 G7 D7 G7
Looking at the big sky listening to the smoke alarm
D7 G7 D7 G7
If you’re wondering what happened well your heart must have jumped the track
D5 D7 G7
You put your lips out in the wind and you hope you get some kissing back
*Chorus 1*
E7
Every night you get the same old dream
G7
There’s a spoon full of honey where your heart should be
(slow it down and make it super lazy, put some funk on it)
D5 Am C D5 Am C
And there’s honey dripping off of your spoon
D5 Am C D5 Am C
Honey dripping off of your spoon
D5 Am C D5 Am C
Honey dripping off of your spoon
D5 Am C D5 Am C
Honey dripping off of your spoon
*Verse 2*
(Exactly the same as the first verse, in the guitar part at least)
D7 G7 D7 G7
Yeah white skin freckles big heart candy green eyes
I bet you wish you had your red-headed woman back sometime
Yeah the last thing you got was a left handed letter
D5 D7 G7
And you opened up the seal like you didn’t even know better
*Chorus 2*
(again, exactly the same as 1st time)
E7
Every night you get the same old dream
G7
There’s a spoon full of honey where your heart should be
D5 Am C D5 Am C
And there’s honey dripping off of your spoon
D5 Am C D5 Am C
Honey dripping off of your spoon
D5 Am C D5 Am C
Honey dripping off of your spoon
D5 Am C D5 Am C
Honey dripping off of your spoon
*Bridge*
(keep it slow)
E7
And don’t you know the spoon’s getting low
G7
You worry and you wonder just where all the honey goes
E7
And you’re hoping and you’re praying real hard
G7
If you will it you can wish it if heaven has a honey jar
(Then go back into main verse riff and repeat a lot for solo. Not figuring it out cause
this is blues, make your own, have fun, go nuts, D is a really easy key)
(After 16/32 bars, just strum chords once for-
D7 G7 D7 G7
Yeah you wondered what happened well your heart must have jumped the track
D7 G7 D7 G7
You put your lips out in the wind and you hope you get some kissing back
*Chorus 3 to end*
E7
Every night you get the same old dream
G7
There’s a spoon full of honey where your heart should be
(now just repeat main riff til the end)
D7 G7
And there’s honey dripping off of your spoon
D7 G7
Honey dripping off of your spoon
D7 G7
Honey dripping off of your spoon
D7 G7
Honey dripping off of your
D7 G7
Heaven is a honey jar
D7 G7
Yeah it’s a honey jar
D7 G7
Honey dripping off of your spoon

Honey dripping off of your spoon

This is my first tab and just a skeletal idea of how the song should go. It's blues so it should never
really be played note for note; have some fun with it now that you know all the changes, make it your own
