The Silly Song

Carrie Hope Fletcher


Tom: G

    G
The birds and the bees singing in trees
               D
Making me feel like I’m a butterfly, flying so very high
Am                                           D
Holding my breath as I’m looking down at the world
    G
And the ocean blue waves at you
                   D 
Hoping that you’re holding a lover’s hand, writing your names in sand
Am                                             D
Building a castle where you can live with your girl


[Chorus]
        Am
Because I can see
     D
That I may be
G          E           Am
Falling so swiftly for you
   Am                  D                       G
So if I’m a butterfly, will you be a butterfly too?


[Verse 2]
    G
And I can’t believe, among the trees
          D
There’s a place that’s invisible, maybe even liveable
Am                                         D
Would it be forgivable if I said we should go?
G
This candyfloss rain tastes like champagne
                   D
And I’ve heard the sunsets are beautiful, oh so very colourful
    Am                                          D
And when the moon is full, there is a fireworks show


[Chorus]
        Am
And now I can see
     D
That I may be
G          E           Am
Falling so swiftly for you
   Am                  D                       G
So if I’m a butterfly, will you be a butterfly too?


[Outro]
    Am
And suddenly it’s very clear
    D                            G
I’m madly deeply so in love with you.
