Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Mamma told me not to waste my life

 She said spread your wings my little butterfly

 Don't let what they say keep you up at night

 And if they give you shhhh..

 Then they can walk on by

Verse

My feet, feet can't touch the ground

 And I can't hear a sound

 But you just keep on running up your mouth yeah

Walk, walk on over there

 Cause I'm too fly to care, oh yeah

Pre-chorus

 Your words don't mean a thing

 I'm not listening

 Keep talking, all I know is

Chorus

Mamma told me not to waste my life,

 She said spread your wings my little butterfly

Don't let what they say keep you up at night

 And they can't detain you

 Cause wings are made to fly

And we don't let nobody bring us down

No matter what you say it won't hurt me

 Don't matter if I fall from the sky

 These wings are made to fly

Verse

 (repeat chords from previous verse... , , , .)

Huh huh...

I'm firing up on that runway

I know we're gonna get there someday

But we don't need no ready steady go, no

Talk, talk turns into air

And I don't even care, oh yeah

Pre-chorus

 (repeat chords from previous Pre-Chorus... , , , .)

Your words don't mean a thing

Keep talking, all I know is

I don't need no one saying hey, hey, hey, hey

I don't hear no one saying hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
