U2 - Wild Honey

      
 
 (c)2000
 
 
 This is a simple song in G, but it has 4 guitars so it can get a little
 confusing.

 U2 - All That You Can't Lead Behind
 
 G          
 In the days
 
 when we were swinging from the trees.
          C    
 I was a monkey
                         G          
 stealing honey from a swarm of bees
 
 I could taste
 
 I could taste you even then
               C                 G  
 And I would chase you down the wind
 
 Em        C                 G   
 You could go there if you please
       D   
 wild honey
 Em          C                 G 
 And if you go there, go with me
       D   
 wild honey
 
 Did I know you?
 Did I know you even then?
 Before the clocks kept time
 Before the world was made
 
 You were shelter
 You were my shelter and my shade
 
 If you go there with me
 wild honey
 You can do just what you please
 wild honey
 Yeah, just blowing in the breeze
 wild honey
  Em      C       G      D 
 Wild... wild... wild... 
 
 I'm still standing, I'm still standing
 Where you left me
 Are you still growing wild
 With everything tame around you?
 
 I send you flowers
 good flowers for your hall
 I know your garden is full
 but is there sweetness at all?
 
 Em    C    Am C 
 love me so... 
 
 If you go there, go with me
 wild honey
 Won't you take me, take me please
 wild honey
 Yeah, swinging through the trees,
 wild honey
 wild... wild... wild...

 If you strum with a steady 4 beat and just use your hammers and pull offs and slides to to the rest it sounds best.
