Intro: E   E   A   E   B A G#m F#m E

E
Buckets of rain
Buckets of tears
Got all them buckets comin' out of my ears
 A                          E
Buckets of moonbeams in my hand
 B               A    G#m       F#m      E
You got all the love, honey baby I can stand

E   E   A   E   B A G#m F#m E

I been meek
And hard like an oak
I seen pretty people disappear like smoke.
  A                                     E
Friends will arrive, friends will disappear,
    B        A  G#m
If you want me, honey baby,
F#m      E
I'll be here.

E   E   A   E   B A G#m F#m E

I like your smile
And your fingertips
I like the way that you move your lips.
   A                             E
I like the cool way you look at me,
B            A           G#m
Everything about you is bringing me
 F#m  E
Misery.

E   E   A   E   B A G#m F#m E

E
Little red wagon
Little red bike
I ain't no monkey but I know what I like.
   A                                    E
I like the way you love me strong and slow,
     B          A       G#m
I'm takin' you with me, honey baby,
 F#m    E
When I go.

Life is sad
Life is a bust
All ya can do is do what you must.
     A                                E
You do what you must do and ya do it well,
      B         A    G#m
I'll do it for you, honey baby,
 F#m       E
Can't you tell?
