Butterfly by Danyel Gerard
Posted by Frank Rodrigues
There are a couple of versions of this song Gerard changed the lyrics from the original
A lovely easy song to play I first heard it in my youth and rediscovered it recently.
G C G
You are bright as a night full of moon
G C D7
Butterfly you have left much to soon
G C G
You have found you have wings and now you wish to fly
G C D G
Please don't go, oh please don't say good bye.
G Em C D7
Butterfly, my Butterfly now I know you must be free
G Em C D G
Butterfly, don't flutter by, stay a little while with me.
G C G
In your mind there's someone far away
G C D7
And you'll miss all the fun if you stay
G C G
You believe that love is elsewhere to be found
G C D G
But you're wrong, it's here, just look around.
G Em C D7
Butterfly, my Butterfly now I know you must be free
G Em C D G
Butterfly, don't flutter by, stay a little while with me.
G C G
Look around, look around and you'll see
G C D7
Better loved then by me you won't be
G C G
And if you fly away you break my heart in two
G C D G
Please don't go I'm so in love with you.
G Em C D7
Butterfly, my Butterfly now I know you must be free
G Em C D G
Butterfly, don't flutter by, stay a little while with me.
G Em C D7
Butterfly, my Butterfly now I know you must be free
G Em C D G
Butterfly, don't flutter by, stay a little while with me.
G Em C D7
Butterfly, my Butterfly now I know you must be free
G Em C D G
Butterfly, don't flutter by, stay a little while with me.
