Verse 1:

D5                     G5             D5
Grass with its fever, temper of the rain
G5                    D5           A5
A soft muffled dream our love became
D5              G5              D5
A fist of bees buzzing under water
G5                D5          A5
A tethered steer marked for slaughter

Chorus 1:
D5                   B5
Love's a beekeeper, its a beekeeper
G5       A5              D5      A5
Drawing honey from our hearts
D5                                  B5
I play the unsound sleeper to your fire and brimstone preacher
G5       A5                    D5       A5
Love assigns us such strange hearts
