Verse 1
C 
I played a show recently
at a place called the People's Republic in Camperdown,
which is a kind of a really cool little warehouse space
and
When I came back
for a small encore
and a gentleman yelled
out white honey
What's that is it yeah
G 
C 
Okay. Clearly you
made an impression on me.
Anyway, this isn't White Honey,
but it's the song I think
that you wanted to hear.
A couple of people have asked for this,
so I'm going to play it.
G 
C 
G 
called Smotherin' Honey.
C 
Em 
Have you been peepin'
G 
past your own windowpane
Em 
C 
Oh yeah,
G 
C 
G 
once again I  ain't your sister,
Em 
C 
but I   somehow feel I am to blame
G 
There's a space that needs to be refilled
Em 
by something that seems
C 
G 
Something that we both forgot
C 
G 
I know I'm the leper,
Em 
but all us lepers know
C 
We cannot change our spots
G 
C 
G 
And you can't be the one to take
F#m 
G 
C 
me home  to watch me play
Em 
G 
Please don't save me
C 
F#m 
G 
cause you know you will  ru in me
Do you live that life?
C 
Do you smile and hon
Em 
C 
ey so that it seems full?
G 
Feel like I'm slicing through your life,
Em 
slowly with a rubber knife
C 
G 
I never meant to be this cruel,
we're romanticizing rifts
Em 
Trying to find something that seems,
C 
G 
something that can't be so true
You can see how steep it is,
as you take another sip
Em 
C 
Well, girl, your mother
wouldn't have a clue
Em 
C 
And you can't
G 
C 
D 
Be the one to take me home
G 
C 
To watch me clean
And please don't
G 
Save me,
C 
G 
Em 
F#m 
G 
C 
cause you know that you   will ruin me
I am
G 
C 
It reminds you and I,
D 
G 
C 
my long lost sister twin
And turn out
G 
C 
Your heartbeat for darkness
F#m 
Em 
begins  to get in
And I will wait
C 
Em 
G 
Cause I'm a travesty
C 
How far I can hold this down
Em 
C 
Em 
G 
And I could walk a country mile
C 
For solutions, paper aeroplanes
Em 
G 
Blackwater well, horseshoes and stones
C 
G 
C 
You know that this is on the brink
Em 
We'll soon forget, and we'll become
G 
C 
G 
A chance reflection in
C 
G 
the kitchen sink
C 
The kitchen sink,
G 
C 
G 
C 
the kitchen sink
Cause you loved them so
much when they're gone
No time to think, no time to try
Time to forget, not to revile,
revile, no, not you again
Em 
C 
Em 
C 
G 
C 
Hey, you could be my world's best friend
G
