[Verse 1]

Dm7        G            C
   I can't even compare
Dm7        G                     C
   To the girls with long blonde hair
Dm7            G              C
   With the air beneath their velvet wings
       Dm7          G               C
   I'm sitting here paper everything
N.C.
   Yeah


[Chorus]

Dm7           G
   Butterfly, butterfly
   C
   Why do I count myself out before I even try?
Dm7           G
   Butterfly, butterfly
   C
   Why do I kill myself before I even come alive?
Dm7            G          C
   Come alive, come alive-ive
Dm7           G          C
   Butterfly, butterfly-y
N.C.
   Oh no-no-no


[Bridge]

Dm7           G          C
   Butterfly, butterfly-y
N.C.
   Oh no-no-no
Dm7         G                         C
   Why do I kill myself before I even try?, yeah
Dm7      G              C
   I can never look too long (Too long, yeah)
Dm7        G                   C     F
   Without pointing out what's wrong
Dm7     G                C        Am
   Lady luck ain't got a thing on me
             Dm7      G                 C
   'Cause I'll hide inside the lilac tree (Lilac tree)


[Chorus]

Dm7           G
   Butterfly, butterfly
   C
   Why do I count myself out before I even try?
Dm7           G
   Butterfly, butterfly
   C
   Why do I kill myself before I even come alive?
Dm7           G          C
   Come alive
Dm7           G          C
   Butterfly
Dm7           G
   Butterfly, butterfly
   C
   Why do I count myself out before I even try?
Dm7           G
   Butterfly, butterfly
   C
   Why do I kill myself before I even come alive?
Dm7           G          C
   Come alive
Dm7           G          C
   Butterfly
