Tabbed by: http://www.andreasvockrodt.de [Intro] Em D C Em D G [Verse]
Em    D             C
Came along with the crystal eyes

      Em               D         G
And a smile that would shine for days

Em          D            C
And I could see that her heart was strong

        Em       D      G
So much kindness in her face

Em         D      C
And patiently she took my hand

    Em     D        C
And gently held the space

Em     D      C
Like a cherry blossom

          Em    D      G
She would silently radiate
[Chorus]
       Em   D     G
Fly me high butterfly

       Em     D      G
Fly me gently to the sky

       Em   D     G
Fly me high butterfly

       Em     D      G
Fly me gently to the sky
[Interlude] Em D C Em D G [Verse 2]
Em    D            C
Came along when my hands were tied

      Em          D      G
And I knew I just had to wait

Em      D         C
Lick my wounds, rebuild my pride

          Em      D    G
Leave the seed to germinate

Em            D          C
See it needed sun and it needed rain

      Em           D     G
And a love I could not locate

Em        D          C
I trusted time and I trusted fire

          Em      D    G
Because I learned to trust in fate
[Chorus 2]
       Em   D     G
Fly me high butterfly

       Em     D      G
Fly me gently to the sky

       Em   D     G
Fly me high butterfly

       Em     D      G
Fly me gently to the sky

       Em   D     G
Fly me high butterfly

       Em     D      G
Fly me gently to the sky

       Em   D     G
Fly me high butterfly

       Em     D      G
Fly me gently to the sky
[Bridge]
C           D             Em            D       C
Beneath the canopy of the jungle when I saw her face

                    D              Em   D         C
To the belly of the animals on the centipedes and snakes

          D               G
Shipibo's song will never fade
[Interlude] Em D C Em D G Em D C Em D G [Verse 3]
Em    D        C
Can't find the road no more

         Em     D         G
When you cannot find your way

Em         D     C              Em         D    G
The candle burns out before you reach your destination

Em        D        C
You can't find the strength inside

   Em      D         G
To keep on with your days

Em         D    C                       Em          D        G
The answer lies deep inside the natural mystic from which we came
