G5                C5             G5 
Fell in love in the wink of an eye, 
                                 C5               D5 
with a girl who was called butterfly. 
             G5            C5                           G5 
She said, she loved me so, she could not let me go, 
                 D5                       G5 
but still I had to say goodbye. 
 
Chorus: 
          G5                                       C5                        D5 
Butterfly, my butterfly, I?ll come home to you one day. 
          G5                         C5         D5                     G5 
Butterfly, my butterfly, wait for me, don?t fly away. 
 

            G5              C5              G5 
Never fly in the heat of the sun, 
                                          C5                 D5 
fold your wings when the long day is done. 
           G5               C5                   G5 
Stay home, and wait for me, till I get back again, 
                        D5                      G5 
counting the minutes one by one.   + Chorus 
 

                G5               C5               G5 
When a man has a yearn to be free, 
                              C5             D5 
he will sail to the end of the sea. 
        G5                          C5               G5 
I won?t be gone too long, but while I travel on, 
                         D5                          G5 
just fold your wings and wait for me.   + Chorus (2x)
