Somewhere in Montana,
B F#
A butterfly got its wings;
B F#
Went flying past the blue bird,
G#m C#
And she started to sing.
F#
Her sweet song filled the meadow,
D# C# B
Like some lonesome lullubye;
G#m B
All because of a butterfly.
F# B F# C#
[VERSE]
F#
The fireflies started dancing,
B F#
The wind began to blow.
B F#
A couple kids filled their mason jars,
G#m C#
And ran like hell back home.
F# D# C# B
And the happy on their faces brought tears to their mama's eyes;
G#m B F#
All because of a butterfly.
[CHORUS]
B
We don't know how,
F# C# B
All the little things lead up to right now.
F# C#
But we muddle through and make it here.
D#m C#
Somehow, when one door closes,
B F#
Another one swings open.
G#m F# B
The smallest thing can come and change your life.
G#m C# F#
Oh, thank God for a butterfly.
B F# C#

F#
Late last night I was thinking about,
B F#
My long and winding road.
B F#
All the love had I taken,
G#m7 C#
And people I let go.
F#
All the prayers that went unanswered,
D# C# B
And I always wondered why.
G#m B F#
Guess it's all because a butterfly.
[CHORUS]
B
We don't know how,
F# C# B
All the little things lead up to right now.
F# C#
But we muddle through and make it here.
D#m C#
Somehow, when one door closes,
B F#
Another one swings open.
G#m F# B
The smallest thing can come and change your life.
G#m C# D#m C#
Oh, thank God for a butterfly.
[BRIDGE]
B F# G#m
Sometimes when I look back and close my eyes,
C# B
I finally see why we don't know how,
F# C# B
All the little things lead up to right now.
F# C#
Oh, we muddle through and make it here.
D#m C#
Somehow, when one door closes,
B F#
Another one swings open.
G#m F# B
The smallest thing can come and change your life.
G#m C#
Oh, thank God,
F# B F#
For a butterfly.
C# F# B F# C# F#
Thank God for a butterfly. (Ohh)
