Watch me fly,

Like a rainbow in the sky

Winter comes and renders everything
C# D# C#
In black and white
[Verse 2]
D# A#m
I see all the butterflies,
G# D#
You captured on your way
A#m
Chloroform and needles
G# C# D# C#
Pinning wings to your display
[Chorus]
D# C# G#
You can’t see me,
D# C# G#
You can’t feel me,
D# C# G#
You can’t catch me,
D# C# G#
You can’t touch me,
D# C# G#
Now,
D# C# G# D# C# G#
My Siberian butter fly
[Verse 3]
D# A#m
Across this land,
G# D#
There are no nature scenes
A#m G# C# D#
Instead you drill and pillage everything of beauty.
[Verse 4]

In you biosphere,
G# D#
You pin these wings so dear

If you touch my chitin
G# C# D# C# D#
Surely I will disappear.

Now,

My Siberian butter-fly
[Bridge]
F G#
You were chasing me through a dream,
C#
Origami and gabardine
C#
All the fields of my past are
Cm
Shiny glass and steel,
A# G#
Every Sunday the local men,
G#
Gather up at the barn and,
Cm
When the sun goes down the sky.
C#
Is filled with rainbow butterflies.
