You might wake [D] up some morning
[G] To the sound of something moving [C] past your window in the wind
And if you're quick [G] enough to rise you'll catch the [Dm] fleeting glimpse of [G] someone's fading [C] shadow
Out on the new [Dm] horizon
You [G] may see the floating motion [C] of a distant pair of wings
And if [D] the sleep is left [G] to ears you might [Dm] hear footsteps [G] running through an [C] old meadow
Don't [Dm] be concerned, [G] it will [C] not harm you
It's [Dm] only me [G] pursuing something [C] I'm not sure of
Across [Dm] my dreams, [G] with [C] nets of wonder
I [Dm] chase the bright [G] elusive [C] butterfly of love
You [G] might have heard [D] my [Dm] footsteps [G] echo softly in the distance [C] through the canyons of your mind
I [D] might have even [G] called your name as I ran searching after something [C] to believe in
You might have seen [D] me running through [G] the long abandoned ruins [C] of the dreams you left behind
If [Dm] you remember [G] something there that [D] glided past you, [G] followed close [C] by heavy breathing
Don't [Dm] be concerned, [G]
it [C] will not harm you
[D] It's only me [G] pursuing something [C] I'm not sure of
[Dm] Across my [G] dreams, with [C] nets of wonder
I [Dm] chase the bright [G] elusive [C] butterfly of love

I [Dm] chase the bright [G] elusive butterfly [C] of love
