[Intro]
F C
Ah, oh
Ah
[Verse 1]
F G/C G
Some of your honey in my hand
Am G/Am F
And a silver dollar in my shoe
G/C G7
Time had never been so kind
F G/C G
The naked spring, the weightless songs
Am G/Am F
And the memories of being young
G/C G7
And the breath of getting out
[Chorus]
G/C F
And days wanting to stay
G
Within, without
G/C F
Keep my green eyes open for what I’ve
G
Been kicking around, oh
Instrumental:
F C/G G Am G/Am F G/C x2
[Verse 2]
F G/C G
I open up the windows now
Am G/Am
Let the wind right through my country home
F G/C G7
Let my notes just fly around
F G/C G
Then get some rest upon the lawn
Am G/Am
Where so many years of leaves did fall
F G/C G
Like a bed of all whats been
[Chorus]
G/C F
And days wanting to stay
G
Within, without
G/C F
Keep my green eyes open for what I’ve
G
Been kicking around
Instrumental:
F C/G G Am G/Am F G/C once through
[Bridge]
E Am
I leave at night before the dreams are in
E Am
Can’t lay and wait for their unraveling

I need my manners, not my weary soul
G7
And theres so much kindness in the world
[Verse 3]
F G/C G
Some of your honey in my hand
Am G/Am F
And a silver dollar in my shoe
G/C G7
Time had never been so bold
F G/C G
I cut my losses, leave the ground
Am G/Am F
Feel a hum in every wheel I turn
G/C G7
And the breath of getting out
[Chorus]
G/C F
And days wanting to stay
G7
Within, without
C F
Keep my green eyes open for what I’ve

Been kicking around, oh
