D                A          C#7               F#m
 Blueberries for breakfast, love in the afternoon, 

D                   A      C#m               F#
Butterflies in my trousers under the August moon 

D                A          C#7               F#m
 Blueberries for breakfast, love in the afternoon, 

D                   A      C#m               F#
Butterflies in my trousers under the August moon 
[Verse 1]
D                 A        C#7                    F#m
 Drive you to the airport; wait till it’s time to go. 

     D           A               C#7                  F#m
I’ve checked the weather report; they say it will not snow 

    D                           A          
And all the planes can come and go. 

    D                          A        
But I think the ceiling is too low, so you can’t go.
[Chorus]
D                A          C#7              F#m
 Blueberries for breakfast, love in the afternoon, 

D                 A        C#m              F#
Butterflies in my trousers under the August moon 
[Verse 2]
D            A            C#7                       F#m
The New York firefly rain burning just a little too bright.

D         A        C#m                        F#
Manhattan firefly, never make it through the night. 

D                      A      
Somehow she came out alright; 

D                             A
Through the darkness, see her light shining bright.
[Chorus]
D                A          C#7              F#m
 Blueberries for breakfast, love in the afternoon, 

D                 A        C#m              F#
Butterflies in my trousers under the August moon
[Verse 3]
D                  A              C#7                    F#m
 I’m gonna have to call the cops, if you don’t leave me alone.

D                   A         C#7                F#m
Stop waiting at the bus stop, trying to walk me home. 

    D                                               A
The FBI, the CIA, you know they'll never leave you alone

D                          A
 And I will cut you to the bone.
[Outro]
D                A          C#7              F#m
 Blueberries for breakfast, love in the afternoon, 

D                 A        C#m              F#
Butterflies in my trousers under the August moon

D                A          C#7              F#m
 Blueberries for breakfast, love in the afternoon, 

D                 A        C#m              F#
Butterflies in my trousers under the August moon
