Chords for Michael Nesmith - Yellow Butterfly (Live at the Britt Festival 1992)

Well, actually I'll tell you what I'm gonna do.
Now this may or may not work, I hope it works.
People have been asking me over the years,
saying, Nez, have you written anything new?
And for a long time the answer's been no.
_ So I decided to write some stuff.
And then I decided to make an album out of it.
And I called the album Tropical Campfires.
Now wait a minute, _ it's not totally weird.
The reason I called it Tropical Campfires
is because there is no winter in the tropics,
so there's no need for a campfire.
So the only campfire in the tropics would be in your [C] mind.
See?
[Em] It's not just bats, is it?

What I'd like to do for you now is if you _ will_
It's [Ab] just_
OK, I'll play them for you.
_ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _
OK, now I'm gonna give you just a little bit_
I'll tell you_
How many theoretical [Ab] physicists out here?
Just hold up your hand.
OK, good.
Any [G] quantum guys?
We got any quantum guys?
OK, perfect.
Here's a little song about complex adaptive systems.
Based around the old song that a butterfly
flapping its wings in Rio de Janeiro
changes the weather in Chicago.
You know how your grandfather used to say that?
OK, this is the song.
