Verse 1:
(G) (Em) (C)
Yesterday I went outside
(D) (G)
With my momma's mason jar
(Em) (Fill)
Caught a lovely butterfly
(G) (Em) (C)
When I woke up today
(D) (G)
Looked in on my fairy pet
(Em) (C) (Fill)
She had withered all away
(D)
No more sighing in her breast
Chorus:
(D) (G)
I'm sorry for what I did
(Em) (C)
I did what my body told me to
(D) (G)
I didn't mean to do you harm
(G7) (C) (D)
Everytime I pin down what I think I want
(G) (Fill)
It slips away - the ghost
(C)
slips away
Verse 2
(G) (Em) (C)
I smell you on my hand for days
(D) (G)
I can't wash away your scent
(Em) (Fill)
If I'm a dog then you're a bitch
(G) (Em) (C)
I guess you're as real as me
(C) (D)
Maybe I can live with that
(Em) (C)
Maybe I need fantasies
(Fill) (D)
A life of chasing butterfly
--Chorus--
Verse 3:
(G) (Em) (C)
I told you I would return

When the robin makes his nest

But I ain't never coming back

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
