[Ab] [Db] [Ab]
[Db] [Ab]
When I [Db] think of those [Ab] East End [Db] lights, muggy [Ab] nights, the curtains [Gb] drawn in the little [Db] room downstairs.
[Ebm] Prima Donna, [Ab] Lord, you really should have been [Ebm] there, sitting like a [Ab] princess perched
in [Db] her electric chair.
[Dbm] And this one more beer, I don't [Bb] need anymore.
[Db] We've all gone crazy lately, [Bb] my friends out there, rolling [Ab] round the basement floor.
[Eb]
[Db] Someone [Ab] saved my life [Bbm] tonight, sugar babe.
[Ab] [Db] [Ab] Almost had your hopes in [Bbm] me, didn't you dear?
[Ab] [Db] You nearly had me [Ab] roped and tied.
[Db] [Bb]
[Ab] Hypnotized, sweet freedom, whispered in my [Fm] ear.
You're a butterfly, [Db] and butterflies need to fly.
[Bb] Fly away, [Ab] fly away.
[C] [Db] Butterflies.
[Ab] [Bbm] [Ab] [Gb]
[Ab] [Db]
[Ab] [Db]
Never [Ab] [Db] realized the [Db] passing hours of [Ab] evening showers, slip [Gb] news hanging in my [Db] darkest dreams.
I'm [Ebm]
stung by a haunting [Ab] social [Ebm] scene, just [Ab] a pawn I played [Db] by a dominating queen.
[Dbm] It's four o'clock [Db] in the morning.
[Bb] Listen to me, ghoul, [Db] I'm sleeping with myself tonight.
[Bb] Second time, thank God my [Ab] music's still alive.
[Eb] [Db] Someone [Ab] saved my life [Bbm] tonight, sugar babe.
[Ab] [Db] [Ab] Almost had your hopes in [Bbm] me, didn't you dear?
[Ab] You [Db] nearly had me [Ab] roped and tied.
[Db] [Bb] Hypnotized, sweet [Ab] freedom, whispered in my ear.
[Fm] You're a butterfly, [Db] and butterflies need to fly.
[Bb] Fly away, [Ab] fly away.
[C] [Db] [Ab] [Bbm]
[Db] [Gb] [Ab]
[Db] [Ab]
And [Db] [Bbm] I would have walked head [Ab] on into the deep end of a river.
[Cm] Clinging to your stocked bar, [Eb] [Db] laying your achy demands forever.
[Bbm] Coming in the morning [Ab] truck to take me home.
[Eb] Someone saved my life tonight.
[Db] Almost [Eb]
[Db] had [Eb] your [Db] hopes in [Bb] me,
[Ab] [Db] didn't you dear?
Someone [Ab] saved my life [Bbm] tonight, sugar babe.
[Ab] [Db] [Ab] [Bbm]
[Fm] [Db] You nearly had me [Ab] wrong from time.
[Db] All the [Bb] time.
Hit the [Ab] time.
Sweet freedom.
Press foot in my [Fm] ear.
You're a butterfly.
[Db] And butterfly.
Fly [Bb] away.
[Ab] Fly away.
