Like a rainbow in the sky

In black and white

I see all the butterflies,

You captured on your way

Chloroform and needles
A D E D
Pinning wings to your display
[Chorus]

You can’t see me,
E D A
You can’t feel me,

You can’t catch me,

You can’t touch me,

Now,
E D A E D A
My Siberian butter fly
[Verse 3]
E Bm
Across this land,
A E
There are no nature scenes

Instead you drill and pillage everything of beauty.

In you biosphere,

You pin these wings so dear

If you touch my chitin

Surely I will disappear.

F# A
You were chasing me through a dream,

Origami and gabardine

All the fields of my past are
C#m
Shiny glass and steel,
B A
Every Sunday the local men,
A
Gather up at the barn and,
C#m
When the sun goes down the sky.
D
Is filled with rainbow butterflies.
