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