G|--------------------3/4---| 
D|---------3----------2/3---| 
A|5--5-3-5---5-3------4/5---| 
E|----------------3-3-------| 
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 youâ??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 


      
      E7 
Every night you get the same old dream 
           G7 
Thereâ??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 thereâ??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 didnâ??t even know better 

*Chorus 2* 
(again, exactly the same as 1st time) 

       E7 
Every night you get the same old dream 
           G7 
Thereâ??s a spoon full of honey where your heart should be 

            D5             Am      C     D5   Am   C 
And thereâ??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 donâ??t you know the spoonâ??s getting low 
G7 
You worry and you wonder just where all the honey goes 
E7 
And youâ??re hoping and youâ??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 
Thereâ??s a spoon full of honey where your heart should be 

(now just repeat main riff til the end) 
            D7                         G7 
And thereâ??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 itâ??s a honey jar 
D7                          G7 
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

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
