--I Box Up All The Butterflies--
INTRO:
E
E
I find it difficult to
E
Relax in the summertime
E
With all the flowers in bloom
E
I creep across the countryside
E
With my net and my bait
E
And a pocket full of veil and twine
E
I break the promises I made
E
As I box up all the butterflies
C#m
I ruin everything
F#m
As I sit in a field of grass
C#m
In the spring, listening
F#m
To the beat of its little heart
C#m
To its wings, struggling
F#m
For air under an upturned glass
C#m
And I put a pin through its wings
F#m
And I bottle it up
F#m
I box it up
E
And bury it in my heart
E
E
Just as I know my friends
E
I also know my enemies
E
Are the birds and the bees
E
And my own little insecurities
E
I creep around in the dark
E
And I tear up all the dandelions
E
And I break my own heart
E
As I box up all the butterflies
C#m
Tirelessly following
F#m
Its tiny butterfly tracks
C#m
Across the field, in the spring
F#m
With a plastic carrier bag
C#m
Full of fish, hooks and string
F#m
I lay a little matchbox trap
C#m
And I put pins through its wings
F#m
And I bottle it up
F#m
I box it up
E
And bury it in my heart
E
E
Amaj7
I folded up its furry wings
Amaj7
And opened up its little heart
E
It might sound stupid but something about it made me wanna pull it apart
E
C#m
I ruin everything
F#m
As I sit in a field of grass
C#m
In the spring, listening
F#m
To the beat of its little heart
C#m
To its wings, struggling
F#m
For air under an upturned glass
C#m
And I put a pin through its wings
F#m
And I bottle it up
F#m
I box it up
E
And bury it in my heart
