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

Iced [F]Honey
Iced[C]Iced honey
Iced [F]Honey
(Repeat Bridge)

Iced [F]Honey (See if the ice will melt for you)
Iced [C]honey (See if the ice will melt for you)
See if the, see if the [F]ice will melt for you
(See if the ice will melt for you)
Iced [C]honey (See if the ice will melt for you)
Iced [F]Honey (See if the ice will melt for you)
Iced [C]honey
