[Intro]
N.C. Three white butterflies to
D
know you're near [Verse]
D I know they think that it
took somebody else Am To make me beautiful, beautiful G As they intended me to be D But they're wrong D I know they think that
it took thousands of people Am To put me together again
like an experiment G Some big men behind the scenes Sewing Frankenstein
D
black dreams into my songs D But they're wrong [Chorus]
C God, if you'rе near me,
G
send mе three white butterflies D Or an owl to know know you're listening,
sitting while I'm drinking C Grandfather, please stand on the
G
shoulders of my father D While he's deep-sea fishing for sharks
in the Pacific [Bridge]
C 'Cause I'm good in spirit, warm-bodied G D A fallible deity wrapped up in white
(Oh-oh) C I'm folk, I'm jazz, I'm blue,
I'm green G D Regrettably, also a white woman
(Oh-oh) C G But I have good intentions even if
D
I'm one of the last ones C If you don't believe me, my poetry,
G
or my melodies D Feel it in your bones C G I have good intentions, even if
D
I'm one of the last ones C G (Ah-ah-ah, yeah, ah-ah-ah, yeah,
D
ah-ah-ah, yeah, mm) [Chorus]
C Grandfather, please stand on
G
the shoulders of my father D While he's deep-sea fishing for
all the things he's wishing C God, if you're near me,
G
send me three white butterflies D Or a map to know you're fishing,
impart on me Your wisdom [Post-Chorus]
G It took somebody else to
Am7
make me beautiful, wonderful G As they intended me to be D But they're wrong D D Am Am G G D D [Outro]
D Three white butterflies to
know you're near
