Queen Adreena

The Butcher And The Butterfly

by Queen Adreena
Queen Adreena

Biography:

Queen Adreena is a band from London, England that formed in 1999. Described at various times as “art, punk, gothic, metal, rock, or alternative”, Queen Adreena's music is difficult to categorize.

Formed by singer Katie Jane Garside and guitarist Crispin Gray, they had previously collaborated in the celebrated but short-lived band Daisy Chainsaw. Garside and Gray did not cross paths again until 1999 when they formed Queen Adreena. An album, Taxidermy, soon followed in 2000.

Queen Adreena - Butcher and the Butterfly
Tuning: EADGBe

[Verse 1]
E A C
There is a finger missing on my right hand
E A C
A butcher's hand in a butterfly wing span
E A C
The sky hangs on a thread as I paint the white picket fence red
E A C
Said "Am I alive or am I dead?"

[Verse 2]
E A C E A C
I caught a rainbow tear in her sunset smile
E A C E A C
I told the broken bird of my unborn child
E A C E A C
These blood-stained walls crown her head
E A C E A C
I found my girl bleeding in his bed

[Chorus]
A G E
The angels cried in butterfly red
(The butcher and the butterfly)
A G E
Her wings are torn, my baby's dead
(The butcher and the butterfly)

[Verse 3]
E A C E A C
I put my girl in the butcher's hand
E A C E A C
"She is my curse," cried fireman Sam
E A C E A C
Heaven down below inscribes her name
E A C E A C
My baby girl's lost in amongst these flames

[Chorus]
A G E
The angels cried in butterfly red
(The butcher and the butterfly)
A G E
Her wings are torn, my baby's dead
(The butcher and the butterfly)
E
Oh heaven, help me what have I done?
E C E E C
I kissed the daughter of my unborn son

[Interlude]
E E E A G
E A C

[Verse 4]
E A C E A C
Heaven down below inscribed her name
E A C E A C
Let heaven, heaven rain down again

[Chorus]
A G E
The angels cried in butterfly red
(The butcher and the butterfly)
A G E
Her wings are torn, my baby's dead
(The butcher and the butterfly)
A G E
The angels cried in butterfly red
(The butcher and the butterfly)
A G E
Her wings are torn, my baby's dead
(The butcher and the butterfly)
