lyrics

The Butterfly & The Bumblebee
CAPO 1

[G] Why don’t you try
You [C] young butterfly
Or [G] did you leave your wings at [D] home
That [G] bumblebee will sting you
His [C] buzzing won’t stay true
His [G] recklessness will [D] find you all [G] alone

It hurts me to see you
Smashed under his shoe
With your fluttering spirit beaten down
Can you stand-up
My [C] poor buttercup
Before the leaves all turn to brown

[C] Fly flyaway m[G]y sweet-thang
[C] Fly flyaway my [D] dear
[G] Fly flyaway [C] when you can
[D] Far far a[B]way from [G} here

Where were you gone
It’s been too long
It’s like you took on a different form
Standing in the wet dew
Your like a fresh bloom
Just waiting for the sun to make you warm

Chorus

G D B G
G D B G
[G]Stretch out [D] those new [B] shiny [G] wings
[G] let go [D] of those [B] puppy [G] strings
[G] I hope to [D] see you [B] full of [G] power
[G] And softly [D] floating [B] among the [G] flowers
G D B G

Make your climb
Atop that vine
To see the big world you must explore
Don’t hesitate
Or you might be late
This is the chance for you to soar

Chorus
