Am You're a pretty butterfly and G You keep on passing by D/F# You never land inside my hands F Your home is in the sky And there's a lesson waiting to be learned The fire starters always get the burns And the good guys never get the girl And shooting stars cannot fix the world Chorus: F And I've made the same mistakes C/E G F But I won't this time C G F No I won't this time And you're a pretty butterfly And I believed all your lies I'm blinded by your sideways smile And the kindness in your eyes But there's a limit to your flight I can offer you a better life But you keep on flying from the light And I've lost my faith in wrong and right Chorus C I know exactly what you'll do Am I made damn sure I studied you F You won't pick me I am just a breeze G Underneath your wings C So I pray each night you'll change your mind Am And maybe I am worth the fight F But I am wrong every time G C Am F G You only know how to fly You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm C D E F F# G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
