Randy Travis - Smokin The Hive (with Clint Eastwood) guitar chord

Smokin The Hive--Randy Travis and Clint Eastwood

written by Byron Hill and J. Remington Wilde

A A7

I was ten years old on my grandpa's farm when it happened

A E

After all these years I can still hear gandpa laughin

A

As he applied that barnyard remedy

D E

He passed his wisdom down to me

A A7 E A

You don't reach for the honey, without smokin the hive

I remember my first crush was on the preacher's daughter

We were smoochin on the front porch swing that night when he caught her

We weren't expectin him home 'til a quarter past ten

When the Good Lord taught me that lesson again

You don't reach for the honey, without smokin the hive

CHORUS:

D A

You don't point your pistol before you check eacher chamber

E A

And you don't drink no you don't drink when you drive

D A B7

It's just ordinary common sense to avoid that danger

A A7 E A

You don't reach for the honey, without smokin the hive

She rolled into town with the rodeo, she was a beauty

And that cowboy saw you wink at her, she was a cutie

The sound of jinglin spurs caught me dead on a run

He was fit to be tied and you were under the gun

You don't reach for that honey, without smokin the hive

CHORUS

No, you don't reach for the honey without smokin the hive

You're gonna get stung boy
