[Verse]
A F
I painted your room at midnight
A F
So I know yesterday was over
A F
I put all your books on the top shelf
C Bb C
Even the one with the four-leaf clover
Bb C Bb
Man I'm getting older
[Verse]
A F
I took all your pictures off the wall
A F
And wrapped 'em in a newspaper blanket
A F C
And I haven't slept in what seems like a century
Bb Ab Bb
And now I can barely breathe
[Chorus]
Am C F
Just like the crow chasing the butterfly
Am C F
Dandelions lost in the summer sky
Am C F
when you and I were getting high as outer space
D5 F G
I never thought you would slip away
D5 F G
I guess I was just a little too late
[Link]
A F A F
[Verse]
A F
Your words still serenade me
A F
Your lullabies won't let me sleep
A F C
I never heard such a haunting melody
Bb C
Oh it's it's killing me
Bb Ab Bb
You know I can barely breathe
[Chorus]
Am C F
Just like the crow chasing the butterfly
Am C F
Dandelions lost in the summer sky
Am C F
when you and I were getting high as outer space
D5 F G
I never thought you would slip away
D5 F G
I guess I was just a little too late
[Solo]

[Chorus]
Am C F
Just like the crow chasing the butterfly
Am C F
Dandelions lost in the summer sky
Am C F
when you and I were getting high as outer space
D5 F G
I never thought you would slip away
Am C F
Just like the crow chasing the butterfly
Am C F
Dandelions lost in the summer sky
Am C F
when you and I were getting high as outer space
D5 F G
I never thought you would slip away
D5 F G Am C F
I guess I was just a little too la-aaa-aate
[Outro]
Am C F
Ooohhhh
Am C F
Just a little too la-aa-aaate
