 Just like a buzzin' fly,
G       Cmaj7     G
 I come into your life,
Cmaj7          G
 Now I float a-way,
     Cmaj7        G    Cmaj7
Like honey in the sun.
G       Cmaj7
 Was it right or wrong?
G           Cmaj7          G
 I couldn't sing that song,
Cmaj7 G    Cmaj7
 Any -way.

G        Cmaj7    G        Cmaj7
 Oh, but darlin', now I re-member,
G        Cmaj7     G     Cmaj7
 How the sun shown down.

 And how it warmed your,

 When all the love was there.

 Every-where I go.

 In the mornin';

 Lord, I miss you so.

 Dar-lin', out your name.

 What makes ya love me this way?

 A-walkin' hand in hand,
G      Cmaj7
 All a-long the sand,
G          Cmaj7     G     Cmaj7
 A seabird knew your name.
G             Cmaj7
 He knew your love was growin',
G                 Cmaj7      G
 Lord, I think it knows it's flowin',

 When I should leave you.
