*1

I play it like this, it sounds wonderful, but you should see the video, the ones
with the * under them are kind of fast ghost notes that are strung upwards, you
will understand when you see the video. (Billy)

Continue the figures over, the rest of the lyrics you can look up at blamo.org
or someplace similer.
        Strum the chords as you hear them in the song
Chord diagramC majorC   Chord diagramG+G
 So I am told
Chord diagramD MajorD  Chord diagramA augmentedA   Chord diagramC majorC Chord diagramG+G
Who wants Honey
  Chord diagramD MajorD   Chord diagramA augmentedA        Chord diagramC majorC  Chord diagramG+G
As long as there is some money
Chord diagramD MajorD  Chord diagramA augmentedA     Chord diagramC majorC  Chord diagramG+G
Who wants that Honey

Continue to next verse from the repeating section.


After the second chorus: " who wants honey"
Comes the
"Let me out" riff. (You should also hear the song to time the right strumming pattern.
Chord diagramE MajorE    Chord diagramD MajorD Chord diagramA augmentedA  Chord diagramC majorC Chord diagramG+G
Let, Let me out

Chord diagramE MajorE    Chord diagramD MajorD Chord diagramA augmentedA  Chord diagramC majorC Chord diagramG+G
Let, Let me out

After that there is a solo, which is hard, I only do something similar, see the
video, and you will see that there are a kind of pattern like this:

E-0-0--0-0--0-0--0--0--0-0--0--0--0-0--0--0--0--0--0--------------
B-9p11-9p11-9p11-9--11-0-0--0--0--0-0--0--0--0--0--0--------------
G-0-0--0-0--0-0--0--0--9-11-11-11-9/11-11-11/13-13/14~~~----------
D-0-0--0-0--0-0--0--0--0-0--0--0--0-0--0--0--0--0--0--------------
A-0-0--0-0--0-0--0--0--0-0--0--0—-7/9—-9--9/-11-11/12~~~----------
E-0-0--0-0--0-0--0--0--0-0--0--0--0-0--0--0---0--0-0--------------


E-0-0--0-0--0-0--0--0--0-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-----
B-9p11-9p11-9p11-9--11-0-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-----
G-0-0--0-0--0-0--0--0--9-11-11-11-11/13-13-13/14-14/16~~~-
D-0-0--0-0--0-0--0--0--0-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-----
A-0-0--0-0--0-0--0--0--0-0--0--0—-9/ 11—11-11/12-12-14~~~-
E-0-0--0-0--0-0--0--0--0-0--0--0--0--0--0--0-0-0-0--------

Then do the same pull-off beginning, and end with sliding down and up with the
same octave-pattern.
 And end with:
|-----------------------------------------
|-----------------------------------------
|-11--11---11-----10--10---10--10---------
|-x---0----0------11--11---11--11---------
|-9---9----9------9---9----9---9----------
|-----10---10-----0---0----0---0----------

Back to chord progression and chorus.
End with this two times:
|--------------------------
|--------------------------
|11~~---11/13---13/14-13~~-
|X------X-------X------x---
|9~~----9/11----11/13-11~~-
|0------0------(0)-----0---

and last finish: (wrong strumming pattern, but right places to hold, Listen to the song;)

|--------------------------------------------------14--14--0-0--
|----------------------------------------------------------0-0--
|---14-14--14-14--13-13--13-13--11-11-11-11--14-14-14--14--1-1--

|---12-12--12-12—-11-11--11-11--9--9--9--9---12-12-12--12--2-2--
|---0--0-0-0-0-0--0--0---0--0---0--0--0--0---0--0—0---0----0-0--
