Capo 1

Intro: D

DI've (xx0232@1)been looking for a sweeter side

Looking for a big bloom on a short vine
                GLooking (320003@1)for a better way of life
                           DSomewhere (xx0232@1)that I can call home

DSpent (xx0232@1)my time at a peach stand

Sun beatin' like a stinging red tan
                 GLike (320003@1)the back of my daddy's hand
                           DThe (xx0232@1)only thing I've ever known

AI (x02220@1)can hear the bees buzzin' through the walls
               G (320003@1)                    DMaking (xx0232@1)their honey and singing their song
            AThey (x02220@1)say I work for the queen all day
         G (320003@1)                    DYeah, (xx0232@1)I work for the queen all day
G (320003@1)     D (xx0232@1)        G (320003@1)   D (xx0232@1)  
  Ohhhh...          Ohhhh...

Sometimes it's a bitter taste
For a motherless child so out of place
I never understood why she ran away
Maybe I'll never know

But there's a light shinin' through the trees
And a restless hum that's calling me
I could almost be carried by the breeze
And let it take me where it goes

         G (320003@1)                    DYeah, (xx0232@1)I work for the queen all day
G (320003@1)     D (xx0232@1)        G (320003@1)   D (xx0232@1)  
  Ohhhh...          Ohhhh...
G (320003@1)     D (xx0232@1)        G (320003@1)   D (xx0232@1)  
  Ohhhh...          Ohhhh...

Now I'm standing on the front porch
Kettle whistling through the screen door
Little footsteps on the kitchen floor
Pretty soon we're gonna eat

Some things come right away
Some seem to take forever and a day
All I know is that it worked out either way
I think I found a family
