Intro:
D G D G
Verse 1:
D
You can't put a butterfly in a jar
G
If the effort's too high no matter who you are
D
You can't catch the moon, or the sun or the stars
G
It doesn't matter who you are
Chorus:
D
Iced honey
G
Iced honey
Verse 2:
D
Now me I've tried a million tricks
G
To make life cold and make it stick
D
Not running heat that flames then out
G
But the proud piece of ice that always floats
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse 3:
D
If I can't trap a butterfly or a bee
G
If I can't keep my heart where I want it to be
D
If no matter how much soul and heart I put to the wood
G
If a flaming heart is not that good
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse 4:
D
If you can't put a butterfly in a jar
G
If violence mars your final hour
D
If you make others feel like jam
G
Poured on a piece of charbroiled lamb
Verse 5:
D
If it's all mixed up and you cannot shout
G
And your oxygen starts to run out
D
If your final gasp has the recipe wrong
G
And instead of hello you say so long
Verse 6:
D
If your energy starts to leak out
G
And people wonder what you're all about
D
A heartbreaker with an unattached heart
G
The story of love gives them all a start
Verse 7:
D
And me, I've always been this way
G
Not by choice, just this way
D
I can't put my honey pot in a jar
G
Or a heart or a fist of some young boy
Verse 8:
D
If you can't put a butterfly in a jar
G
No wonder no need to wonder where you are
D
It might seem like Hell, the river Styx
G
Your affection never sticks
Verse 9:
D
No matter what you say, no matter what you do
G
A butterfly heart flies right past you
D
There's nothing to say, nothing to do
G
See if the ice will melt for you
Bridge:
D
See if the ice will melt for you
G
See if the ice will melt for you
D
See if the ice will melt for you
D
See if the ice will melt for you
Chorus:
D
Iced honey
G
Iced Honey
D
Iced honey
G
Iced Honey
(Repeat Bridge)

Iced honey (See if the ice will melt for you)

Iced Honey (See if the ice will melt for you)
D
Iced honey (See if the ice will melt for you)
G
See if the, see if the ice will melt for you
(See if the ice will melt for you)
D
Iced honey (See if the ice will melt for you)
G
Iced Honey (See if the ice will melt for you)

Iced honey

Whole song.
You can't put a butterfly in a jar
If the effort's too high no matter who you are
You can't catch the moon, or the sun or the stars
It doesn't matter who you are
Iced honey
Now me I've tried a million tricks
To make life cold and make it stick
Not running heat that flames then out
But the proud piece of ice that always floats
Iced honey
If I can't trap a butterfly or a bee
If I can't keep my heart where I want it to be
If no matter how much soul and heart
I put to the wood
If a flaming heart is not that good
Iced honey
If you can't put a butterfly in a jar
If violence mars your final hour
If you make others feel like jam
Poured on a piece of charbroiled lamb
If it's all mixed up and you cannot shout
And your oxygen starts to run out
If your final gasp has the recipe wrong
And instead of hello you say so long
If your energy starts to leak out
And people wonder what you're all about
A heartbreaker with an unattached heart
The story of love gives them all a start
And me, I've always been this way
Not by choice, just this way
I can't put my honey pot in a jar
Or a heart or a fist of some young boy
If you can't put a butterfly in a jar
No wonder no need to wonder where you are
It might seem like hell, the River Styx
Your affection never sticks
No matter what you say, no matter what you do
A butterfly heart flies right past you
There's nothing to say, nothing to do
See if the ice will melt for you
Iced honey
