B                 C#        D#m
Used to dread the month of June
       B           C#     D#m
'Cause it reminded me of you
    B             F#        D#m            C#
And always came around too soon, not anymore

A part of me I had to find
'Cause it was killin' me inside
Yeah, you were always like a bye I wasn't ready for

                      B
Yeah, I figured this was something
I deal with my whole life
D#m
Stop pushin' my past to the side
F#
his is what it's 'posed to feel like
C#
Now I look up and I see you in the sky

Chorus:
 B          C#         D#m
Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly
 B          C#         D#m
Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly
 B          C#         D#m
Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly
 C#
High

Forgiveness is the hardest truth
It's something that you have to choose
Well, at least I got my heart from you,
that much I'm grateful for

I know because you lie and taught me 'bout honesty, honesty
You leave and gave me my loyalty, loyalty
I'm growin' into who I'm meant to be, yeah
No more lookin' for a sign

This is something I deal with my whole life
Stop pushin' my past to the side
This is what it's 'posed to feel like
Now I look up and I see you in the sky

Chorus:
 B          C#         D#m
Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly (Butterfly)
 B          C#         D#m
Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly
 B          C#         D#m
Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly (Ah)
 G#m F# E
High

E           B
Oh, it was painful, it was needed
         F#
See you changin' right in front of me
          E
You were never really graceful
            B
Now you're just what you're supposed to be
       B
I can feel you, like I need to
       F#                    E
I can see you, flyin' over me
             B
Flyin' over me, oh

 B          C#        D#m
Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly
D#m                B
Butterfly, butterfly
