Standard (EADGBE)

 Lord she's restless, like cotton candy clouds that sail the day, slow and

free

 And she possesses a mind that can't resign to stay, for long with me

 Though I've tried and tried to keep her tied

 And satisfied until she really needs me, yes I do

But when that certain look comes on her face I can't replace it and she

leaves me

Chorus

She's a butterfly in mid July who just can't wait to try her brand new

wings, on brand new things

 And she needs no rhyme or reason when she goes

Her mind is on what lies beyond that wall

 And blue horizon I suppose and heaven knows

 She'll go sailin' off on any old wind that blows

 Yes she will, yes she will

 She'll go sailin' off on any old wind that blows

I know she needs me, about as much as I need someone else, which I don't

And if need be, I swear someday I'll up and leave myself, which I won't

Even if she loved another man I'd understand it more than I do

Mmmm Mmmmm Mmmm

But I know the only reason that she ever has for leavin' is she wants to

She's a butterfly in mid July who just can't wait to try her brand new wings, on brand new things

And she needs no rhyme or reason when she goes

Her mind is on what lies beyond that wall

And blue horizon I suppose and heaven knows

She'll go sailin' off on any old wind that blows

Yes she will, yes she will

She'll go sailin' off on any old wind that blows
