from the album "Butterfly for Bucky"
BUTTERFLY FOR BUCKY
G D
Buck was born on a beautiful morning
C G
And I felt very proud
D
Lets just say its not every day
C G
That you see me cry out loud
D
Hair like Sunshine, A smile as Warm
C G
And the prettiest eyes you'll find
D
One day last spring my lady and I
C G
Found out those eyes were blind
CHORUS:
G D
Save a Butterfly for me daddy
C D G
They sound so pretty to me
D
Tell me about the butterfly
G C D G
And all the things you see
G D
Well over there Buck lies a beautiful meadow
C G
With the colors of gold and tan
D
With the smell of hay and the sound of crickets
C G
Here Buck, Take my hand
D
And I wish you could see that big oak tree
C G
With its limbs reaching up to the sky
D
And a bed of flowers growing at its feet
C G
And a Big Yellow Butterfly
G D
Save a butterfly for me Daddy
C D G
Before they disappear
D
Save a butterfly for me Daddy
G C D G
and on his cheek was a tiny tear
G D
So we packed up our bags our hopes and our dreams
C G
And we all went to town that day
D
I sneaked off to the hospital chapel
C G
I got down on my knees and I prayed
G D
Save a butterfly for my boy Lord
C D G
I sure need nothing for me
G D
Except an angel of joy to touch him
G C D G
The way that he's touched me
G D
Now there are things in this universe
C G
That we just don't understand
G D
And through an open window came a butterfly
C G
to land on Bucks small hand
D
The doctors face was strangely white
C G
As if it just couldn't be
D
But the light was in my boys face
C G
Daddy he said, I can see
G D
Save a Butterfly for us Bucky
C D G
We're all so blind it seems
D
For we've not seen the magic
G C D G
In the power of a little boys dreams
