D5
When you love someone so deeply
A9/C#
They become your life
D5                            A9/C#
It's easy to succumb to overwhelming fears inside

D5
Blindly I imagined I could
F#m/C#
Keep you under glass
        G
Now I understand to hold you
      E4(7/9)
I must open up my hands
             A
And watch you rise

                                  E/G#
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
F#m/C#
For you have become a butterfly
C/F             G6
Fly abandonedly into the sun
A                        E/G#
If you should return to me
F#m
We truly were meant to be
C/F                      G   D  A
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

D5
I have learned that beauty
       A9/C#
Has to flourish in the light
D5
Wild horses run unbridled
A9/C#
Or their spirit dies
D5
You have given me the courage
F#m/C#
To be all that I can
          G
And I truly feel your heart will
          E4(7/9)
Lead you back to me when you're
             A
Ready to land

                                  E/G#
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
F#m/C#
For you have become a butterfly
C/F             G6
Fly abandonedly into the sun
A                        E/G#
If you should return to me
F#m
We truly were meant to be
C/F                      G   D  A
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

C#7/G#
I can't pretend these tears
C#7         F#m
Aren't overflowing steadily
C#7/G#
I can't prevent this hurt from
       F#m
Almost overtaking me
F/G         C/G         Am7
But I will stand and say goodbye
    Bb7+
For you'll never be mine
E4(7/9)                               A
Until you know the way it feels to fly

                                 E/G#
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
F#m/C#
For you have become a butterfly
C/F             G6
Fly abandonedly into the sun
A                        E/G#
If you should return to me
(I will know you're mine)
F#m
We truly were meant to be
C/F                      G   D  A
So spread your wings and fly
(My butterfly)

C/F                     G2
So flutter through the sky
