Chords

[Verse 1]
      Em         C
I had nothing to say

G            D
On Christmas day

         Em             C              G    D/F#
When you threw all your clothes in the snow

         Em          C
When you burned your hair

        G            D
And you knocked over chairs

       Em            C           G
I just tried to stay out of your way
[Chorus 1]
             G
But when you fell asleep

     C             G
With blood on your teeth

       Em        C             G
I just got in my car and drove away

          G         C
Listen to me, butterfly

        C            G
There's only so much wine

             Em
That you can drink

       C
In one life

            C          G
And it will never be enough

            Em
To save you from

    C              G
The bottom of your glass

[Verse 2] (Crescendo)
         Em            C
When the state highway starts

G         D
I stop my car

      Em     C               G    D/F#
I get out to stare up at the stars

       Em      C
And as meteors died

    G               D
And shot across the sky

       Em                 C           G
I just thought about your sad shining eyes
[Chorus 2]
           G
And I went back for my clothes

         C                G
When the sun finally rose

       Em             C                 G
Oh but you were still passed out on the floor

          G        N.C.
Listen to me butterfly
N.C. There's only so much wine
             Em
That you can drink

       C
In one life

            C          G
But it will never be enough

            Em
To save you from

    C              G
The bottom of your glass
