C E
calm that wicked wind,
Am
to pick you up
F
and carry you off eastward,
C G
though i did release you
F C
for to seek a warmer sky
C E
should you be blown back
Am F
know that i will always run to greet you,
C G
still surprised to catch you
F C
every time
F G C
armed with this small butterfly net only
F G
i will face the world alone
C G
and never be lonely
C E
so calm that wicked wind,
Am F
and if you go, you could be gone forever
C G
i will play a while here
F C
by and by and by and by
F G C
armed with this small butterfly net only
F G
i will face the world alone
C G
and never be lonely
C E
up and up you go
Am F
for to steal the secrets of the heavens
C G
will you share them with me
F C
my bright and brilliant spy?
C E
should you be blown back
Am F
know that i will always run to greet you,
C G
still surprised to catch you
F C
every time
C G
still surprised to catch you
F C
by and by and by and by
