[G]
[Cm] You planted seeds of love in my heart
[Ab] With all the tender words you said at the start
[F] But love is something you shouldn't begin
If you're not gonna see it through [Eb] to the end
Come [Ab] back and finish what you started
[Eb] Don't

I've got a taste of honey here
[F] today
[G] Don't turn me off, [A] turn it up
For once in my life I've [E] got something to say
[G] I wanna say it now, [A] but now is today
Life has been given [E] to grab and [G] enjoy
So let's all grab [A] and let's all enjoy
I [D] ain't nobody, [E] but I ain't never, [A] ain't nobody
I've got kids, [D] I ain't nobody, [E] but I ain't never, [A] ain't nobody
Just take a look around [E] you, what do you [G] see?
Kids with feelings, [A] like you and me
Understand him, [E] he'll understand you
[G] For you are him, [A] and he is you
In the case [D] I am nothing, [E] then I never, [A] ain't nobody
In the case I [D] am nothing, [E] then I never, [A] ain't nobody

[E] [G] don't wanna be rejected
[D] I don't [A] wanna be the man
[E] And it's not [G] my misfortune [D] that I'll open up [A] your eyes
Freedom is given, [E] this is how you feel
[G] I have no freedom, [A] how do you feel?
Like a light in my face, [E] but not to my [G] heart
If we stand together, [A] we will just be the star
In the case [D] I am nothing, [E] then I never, [A] ain't nobody
In the case [D] I am nothing, [E] then I never, ain't [A] nobody
