  BUTTERFLY FOR BUCKY

  

  G                            D

  Buck was born on a beautiful morning

         C            G

  And I felt very proud

                          D

  Lets just say its not every day

                C                    G

  That you see me cry out loud

                                  D  

  Hair like Sunshine, A smile as Warm

              C                            G

  And the prettiest eyes you'll find

                                     D

  One day last spring my lady and I

            C                            G

  Found out those eyes were blind

  

  CHORUS:

      G                               D

     Save a Butterfly for me daddy

              C           D           G

     They sound so pretty to me

                                       D

     Tell me about the butterfly

             G       C        D    G

      And all the things you see

  

  G                                      D

  Well over there Buck lies a beautiful meadow

                 C                       G

  With the colors of gold and tan

                                                D   

  With the smell of hay and the sound of crickets

                    C           G

  Here Buck, Take my hand

                                              D

  And I wish you could see that big oak tree

               C                                G

  With its limbs reaching up to the sky

                                             D

  And a bed of flowers growing at its feet

            C                G

  And a Big Yellow Butterfly

  

  G                               D

  Save a butterfly for me Daddy

  C                D         G

  Before they disappear

                                   D

  Save a butterfly for me Daddy

                  G               C D   G

  and on his cheek was a tiny tear

  G                                           D

  So we packed up our bags our hopes and our dreams

               C                           G

  And we all went to town that day

                                            D

  I sneaked off to the hospital chapel

           C                                 G

  I got down on my knees and I prayed

  

  G                                       D

  Save a butterfly for my boy Lord

  C                D             G

  I sure need nothing for me

  G                                   D

  Except an angel of joy to touch him

          G          C       D       G

  The way that he's touched me

  

  G                                         D

  Now there are things in this universe

          C                           G

  That we just don't understand

  G                                                      D

  And through an open window came a butterfly

       C                            G

  to land on Bucks small hand

                                   D

  The doctors face was strangely white

        C                      G

  As if it just couldn't be

                                             D

  But the light was in my boys face

                        C        G

  Daddy he said, I can see

  

  G                               D

  Save a Butterfly for us Bucky

            C      D         G

  We're all so blind it seems

                                       D

  For we've not seen the magic

            G            C       D     G

  In the power of a little boys dreams
