Chords

Hi there! I'm loving this song (big surprise!) ***THIS IS EASY TO PLAY!!! I had some questions about some chords I was unsure of and UG user P_Trik helped out with actual names (who knew the Am/F chord does not exist??) Here's a link to the song, play along- **The chords look scary but the shapes are easy:) EADGBe

D9/F#   [200210]
Gsus    [3x0010] or [xx0010]- which could be another chord all together :/

Fmaj7/A [x03210] - mistakenly known as an Am/F, which I've learned does not exist. (Read comments below, Thanks P_Trik) (I've got it tabbed too, check it out.) STANDARD TUNING NO CAPO Intro- Am Gsus D9/F# Fmaj7/A

Am
You're a pretty butterfly and

Gsus
You keep on passing by

   D9/F#
You   never land inside my hands

     Fmaj7/A
Your home is in the sky

    Am
And there's a lesson waiting to be learned

    Gsus
The fire starters always get the best

        D9/F#
And the good guys never get the girl

    Fmaj7/A                          
And shooting stars cannot fix the world

    F                     
And I've made the same mistakes

      C     G    Fmaj7/A
But I won't this time

     C     G    Fmaj7/A
No I won't this time

Am Gsus D9/F# Fmaj7/A

Am
And you're a pretty butterfly

Gsus
And I believed all your lies

                D9/F#
Blinded by your sideways smile

   Fmaj7/A
And   kindness in your eyes

    Am
But there's a limit to your flight

Gsus
I can offer you a better life

    D9/F#
But you keep on flying from the light

    Fmaj7/A
And I've lost my faith in wrong and right

    F                     
And I've made the same mistakes

      C     G    Fmaj7/A
But I won't this time

     C    G     Fmaj7/A  Gsus  Fmaj7/A  Gsus
No I won't this time

  C
I know exactly what you'll do

  Am
I made damn sure I studied you

    Fmaj7/A
You won't pick me I am just a breeze 

     G
Underneath your wings

     C
So I pray each night you'll change your mind

    Am
And maybe I am worth the fight

    Fmaj7/A
But I am wrong every time

    G                C    Am  Fmaj7/A  G
You only know how to fly

                 C             Am  
You only know how to fly, whoa oh

Fmaj7/A -once (G* C* -you can play these chords if you want but You only, know how to, fly really there are no chords here.) Have fun and RATE :) cristy&hearts;guitar
