Butterfly Net Chords by Caroline Polachek

[Intro]

D  F 
D  F
 
[Verse]

Dsus2            Dsus2/F
Earth went silent,  London fell asleep
     Dsus2                
She dreamed of winter where 
Dsus2/F
you appeared to me
Dsus2             
Perfect timing as 
    Dsus2/F      Gsus2
new petals in November
  Bbsus2                   
A tender creature, a fever,   
  Csus2
disarming, fluorescent
 
[Chorus]

           D              F
There you were with your mirror
 D                    Em
Shining the world all over me
        Dm       C
There I was with my butterfly net
Bb                    C
Trying to catch your light
 
D Fmaj7 D Em
Dm C Bb C
 
[Verse]

      D            Fmaj7
I collected stupid ashes
        Bb               
so that after you'd gone 
        Csus2
I could hold onto something
         Dm                      
But you stayed unwavering through 
Csus2
every false goodbye
Bb                   
  Unsubsiding, pining,
Csus2
     for now and for never
 
[Chorus]

           D              F
There you were with your mirror
 D                    Em
Shining the world all over me
        Dm       C
There I was with my butterfly net
Bb                    C
Trying to catch your light
 
 
[Bridge]

Dm            C                      Ab
   Oh if only   the umbrella of the sky
              Bb
Could wrap us up and up
                 Dm            
That's where I'd zoom in close,
C                Bb
 dilated as your eyes
                   Bb
But til then I'll keep it brief
 
[Verse]

N.C.
Faithful inertia, 

her bullet doesn't slow
N.C.
It seeks and finds me 

how far it goes, heaven help me
Dm                        
Take this bag of wings and 
 Am
drown it in the thames
     Bbm           Bb     
And wake tomorrow, hollow, 
 C
hardly forgetting
 
[Chorus]

           D   F D Em
There you were
        Dm       C
There I was with my butterfly net
Bb                    C
Trying to catch your light
