 D   Cdim  G/E A7            
Poor Butterfly 'neath  
   Gdim      D  D7M Bm 
The blossoms waiting  
  D6     F#7                
Poor Butterfly 
          B7 
For she loved him so 
  B7    E7     A9        A7   
The moments pass into hours 
 D        D9    Bm 
the hours pass into years 
 Bm7/A   E4/7             E7   Em7         
And as she smiles through her tears 
 G/B    A4/7  A7  
She murmurs low 
D   Cdim    G/E A7        
The moon and I        
     Gdim        D      D7M  Bm 
know that he'll be faithful 
  D6           F#7       B7 
I'm sure he'll come back, by and by 
        Em7             Gm  
But if he don't come back 
     D   D7M 
then I never sigh or cry  
D  Fdim     Em7  
I just must die 
A7     G/B  A7 D
