Intro: Am F Am E7

                          Am
On the wings of the butterfly
                              F
From the rings of the falling sky
               C                  E7
I linger in my dreams to stay the pain

                          Am
On the wings of the butterfly
                           F
We will sing of a motherʼs lie
                C          E7      Am
And every sorry soul shall know my name

Am F Am E7
Am F Dm Eb E7
Am F C E7 Am F C E7
F G E7 E7

Verse:
Am
  Beneath the empty womb
F
  The leaves come gently falling
Am                          E7
  My golden guise a failing remedy

Am
  Our tree is halved and hewn
F
  Yet I can hear you calling
Dm                 Eb            E7
  Your voice still echoes silently

F      G       E7
Torn apart are we

Chorus:
               Am
Iʼve waited so long for you
         F
Carrying on for you
         C               E7
Onto the faintest hope I hold

               Am
Iʼve waited so long for you
             F
Carried this burden to
             C                 E7
Fend off the fortunes long foretold

                 Am    F C E7
To rot in purest gold
                 Am    F C E7
To rot in purest gold

Am F Am E7

                          Am
On the wings of the butterfly
                             F
In the deep where we dim and die
                   C                    E7
I shed my stricken skin, this crumbling bark

                         Am
All the ruin that I have wrought
                             F
All the scars of the battles fought
                         C      E7     Am
Through sightless eyes I gaze into the dark

F G E7 E7

Verse:
Am
  And in my still repose
F
  Time passes oh so slowly
Am                        E7
  In shrouded shelter I remain confined

Am
  Until the flower grows
F
  Blossom of blight will hold me
Dm       Eb             E7
So I may bloom a final time

F      G       E7
I will dance divine

Chorus:
               Am
Iʼve waited so long for you
         F
Carrying on for you
         C               E7
Onto the faintest hope I hold

               Am
Iʼve waited so long for you
             F
Carried this burden to
             C                 E7
Fend off the fortunes long foretold

                 Am    F C E7
To rot in purest gold
                 Am    F C E7
To rot in purest gold

Bridge:
    F         G
And Iʼm still longing
        Am               E7
For the comfort that you brought
   F       G                 E7
No sign or song of what Iʼve sought

             Am        Ab Am   F
I will dance divine

Am
 Down in these roots I slumber
Ab
 My form it falls asunder
Am
 Feed me these dregs to conquer
F                         Am
 So I may taste my honour lost

F      G       Am      Am   Am
I will dance divine

F      G       Am   G   F E7   Am G   F E7
I will dance divine

Am G F E7
Am F C E7
Am F C E7

                          Am
On the wings of the butterfly
                              F
From the rings of the falling sky
               C                  E7
I linger in my dreams to stay the pain

                          Am
On the wings of the butterfly
                           F
We will sing of a motherʼs lie
                C          E7      Am
And every sorry soul shall know my name

F         G       E7
They will know my name

Chorus:
               Am
Iʼve waited so long for you
         F
Carrying on for you
         C               E7
Onto the faintest hope I hold

               Am
Iʼve waited so long for you
             F
Carried this burden to
             C                 E7
Fend off the fortunes long foretold

                 F      G
To rot in purest gold
                 Am
To rot in purest gold

Outro:
Am           Ab             Am
 In darkness I will dance divine
