Verse 1
Yesterday I went outside
With my momma's mason jar
Em C Riff 1
Caught a lovely butterfly
When I woke up today
Looked in on my fairy pet
She had withered all away
Riff 1 D7
No more sighing in her breast
Chorus
I'm sorry for what I did
I did what my body told me to
I didn't mean to do you harm
Every time I pin down what I think I want
Riff 2 Em
It slips away
The ghost slips away
Verse 2
Smell you on my hand for days
I can't wash away your scent
Em C Riff 1
I'm a dog then you're a bitch
I guess you're as real as me
Maybe I can live with that
Maybe I need fantasy
Riff 1 D7
Life of chasing butterfly
Chorus
I'm sorry for what I did
I did what my body told me to
I didn't mean to do you harm
Every time I pin down what I think I want
Riff 2 Em
It slips away
The ghost slips away
Verse 3
I told you I would return
When the robin makes his nest
Em C Riff 3
But I ain't never coming back
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
