Start Jamming...
[G] As [C] I was walking deep in sorrow, thinking about the times [G] we'd shared
A [C] butterfly danced round me, a white cloud in the [G] evening air
And [Em] I knew that your soul was finally home [A] and free
But [Am] it felt like a blessing, [D] a message from you [G] to me
Now you [C] can fly, [D]
now [G] you can [Em] soar
So [Am] high above this world [D] where troubles are [G] no more
[B] The time [C] has come [D] to say [Bm] goodbye
[Em] And let your [Am] soul go to heaven [D] on the wings of a [G] butterfly
Just
[C] a few days after, they called us to church [G] to pray
[C] Loved ones gathered round you to bless and send you on [G] your way
And [Em] as I got up to speak, it suddenly caught [A] my eye
White [Am] wings against the window, a beautiful [Dm] butterfly
[G] [F] [C] [G]
Now you [C] can fly, [D]
now [G] you can [Bm] [Em] soar
So [Am] high above this world [D] where troubles are [G] no more
[B] This love [C] of ours [D] will never [Bm] die
[Em] So let your [Am] soul go to heaven [D] on the wings of a [G] butterfly
[Em] One day [Am] we'll meet again in heaven [D] and we'll fly like that [C] butterfly
[G] [C] [G]
