C                E                 Am            F 
Calm that wicked wind, to pick you up and carry you off eastward,
C             G          F                     G 
Though I did release you for to seek a warmer sky
C                     E           Am             F 
Should you be blown back know that I will always run to greet you,
C                     G      F           C 
Still surprised to catch you every time


C                     F              C 
Armed with this small butterfly net only
F                G 
I will face the world alone
    C            G 
and never be lonely

C                     E            Am                         F 
So calm that wicked wind, and if you go, you could be gone forever
C              G         F                     C 
I will play a while here by and by and by and by

C              E         Am                  F 
Up and up you go for to steal the secrets of the heavens
C                    G      F                        G 
Will you share them with me my bright and brilliant spy?
