C Am7
Headed east from San Francisco,
Dm7 G
Lookin' for a place I should go.
C Am7 Dm7 G
Needed just some time to clear my mind.
Dm7 G
In the mountains, in a meadow,
C Am7
Far away from all that I know,
Dm7 G Dm7 G
Found a little place I could unwind.
(Chorus)
C F G
In a butterfly wind, it's magic,
C Am
And I'm looking for a way to begin.
F G
In a butterfly wind, it's tragic
C Am
If you never find your way there again.
Dm7 G
And the butterfly wind blows sweetly
Em7 Am7
And it's gentle like the touch of your hand
Dm7 G C
As the butterfly wind whispers over the land.
Lay there with the grass below me
In a world that didn't know me.
Saw him gently flutter cross the sky.
Drifting softly on the breezes.
Taking comfort where he pleases.
God, I wish I knew the way to fly.
(On) (Chorus)
Sat there for a moment resting,
Orange and black wings attesting
That he was the king of all his race.
Then he flew and I flew with him
To the home where I'd been livin'
And brushed my fingertips across your face.
(Like) (Chorus) (In) (Chorus)
Am7 Dm7
And I'm holding your hand
G C
In a butterfly wind.
