Am         F   C            G
I had nothing to say on Christmas day
         Am             F              C     Em
When you threw all your clothes in the snow
         Am         F     C               G
When you burnt your hair and knocked over chairs
       Am            F           C     Em
I just tried to stay out of your way

             Am
But when you fell asleep
     F                 C
With blood on your teeth
       Am        F             G
I just got in my car and drove away

          C           F                          C
Listen to me, butterfly, there's only so much wine
             Am           F
That you can drink in one life
                     C
And it will never be enough
            Am       F              C
To save you from the bottom of your glass

( Am  F  C  G )
( Am  F  C )
( Am  F  C  G )
( Am  F  C )

          Am            F       C            G
Where the state highway starts, I parked my car
      Am          F                Em
And I got out and stared up at the stars
       Am      F         C               G
And as meteors dived and shot across the sky
  Am                 F            C
I thought about your sad, shining eyes

       Am          Em
I came back for my clothes
         F           C
When the Sun finally rose
    Am             F                 G
And you were still passed out on the floor

          C          F                        C
Listen to me, butterfly, there's only so much wine
             Am           F
That you can drink in one life
                     C
And it will never be enough
            Am       F              C
To save you from the bottom of your glass

[Final] Am  F  C  G
        Am  F  C
        Am  F  C  G
