[Verse 1]
   G     G/F#   G/E         D7         G
Do you remember days not so very long ago

         Em               Am                D7
When the world was run by people twice your size?

        G                 C
And the days were full of laughter

        D                   G
And the nights were full of stars

         Am             D                    G
And when you grew tired you could close your eyes
[Verse 2]
         G          G/F#      G/E
Yes, the stars were there for wishing

        D7                 G
And the wind was there for kites

        Em              Am                  D7
And the morning sun was there for "rise and shine"

    G           C                 D                   G
And even if the sniffles kept you home from school in bed

    Am              D                G
You couldn't hardly stay there after nine
[Chorus]
      Am            D7                 G Em
And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded

     Am              D7                A7              D7
What happened to the robin's song that sparkled in the sky

G                G7              C              G
 Where's all the water gone that tumbled down a stream?

       Am          D7           G
Will I ever catch another butterfly?
[Verse 3]
   G     G/F#   G/E             D7               G
Do you remember camp-outs right in your own back yard

    Em            Am               D7
And wonderin' how aeroplanes could fly?

        G                C              D              G
And the hours spent just playin' with a funny rock you found

     Am                D               G
With crystal specks as blue as all the sky
[Chorus]
      Am            D7                 G Em
And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded

     Am              D7                A7              D7
What happened to the robin's song that sparkled in the sky?

G                G7              C              G
 Where's all the water gone that tumbled down a stream?

       Am          D7           G
Will I ever catch another butterfly?
[Verse 4]
G     G/F#    G/E        D7               G
Now I watch my son, he's playin' with his toys

     Em          Am              D7
He's happy and I give him all I can

      G                  C             D        G
But I can't help feelin' just a little tingly inside

       Am              D             G
When I hear him say he wants to be a man
[Chorus]
      Am            D7                 G Em
And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded

     Am              D7                A7              D7
What happened to the robin's song that sparkled in the sky?

G                G7              C              G
 Where's all the water gone that tumbled down a stream?

       Am          D7           G
Will I ever catch another butterfly?

       Am          D7           G D G
Will I ever catch another butterfly?
