Verse 1:
D                          Bm
 Silver and gold, and it's growing cold 
G                    F#m
Autumn leaves lay as thick as thieves
D                         Bm
 Shivers down your spine, chill you to the bone,
          G                    F#m
cause the mandling wind is the melody that turns your heart to stone
     D                          Bm
 The heat of your breath carvin shadows in the mist 
      G                         F#m
Every angel has the wish, she's never been kissed
   D             Bm
 A broken dream , haunting in your sleep
G                       F#m
Hiding in your smile, a secret you must keep love cuts you deep.

Chorus:      
Bm                                        A
Love breaks the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
Bm                                        A
Love breaks the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
      
Verse 2:
            D                     Bm
 There's no scarlet in you, lay a fair down for me
G                                 F#m
Sure has got me twined, you can't wrap you arms around a memory
     D               Bm
Take warmth from me, cold autumn winds cut sharp as a knife
           G                      F#m
but in the dark for me you're the candle flame that flikkers to light

Chorus:                  x2 times
      
Bridge:
D                   Bm
Wise men say all is fair in love and war
               G         
And there's no right or wrong in the design of love
    F#m            
And I could only watch as the wind crushed your wings
D                Bm
Broken and torn, crushed like a flower under the snow
             G                     F#m
and like the flower in the spring, love will rise again to heal your wings
      
Chorus 2:
Bm                                       A
Love heals the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
Bm                                            A
Love will heal the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
Bm                                        A
Love heals the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
Bm                                            A
Love will heal the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
