Caroline Polachek - Butterfly Net

                [Intro]
D F D F

[Verse 1]
Dsus2            Dsus2/F
Earth went silent,  London fell asleep
     Dsus2                  Dsus2/F
She dreamed of winter where you appeared to me
Dsus2                 Dsus2/F     Gsus2
Perfect timing as new petals in November
  Bbsus2                      Csus2
A tender creature, a fever, disarming, fluorescent

[Chorus]
           D              F
There you were with your mirror
 D                    Em
Shining the world all over me
        Dm       C
There I was with my butterfly net
Bb                    C
Trying to catch your light

D Fmaj7 D Em
Dm C Bb C

[Verse 2]
      D            Fmaj7
I collected stupid ashes
        Bb                       Csus2
so that after you'd gone I could hold onto something
         Dm                       Csus2
But you stayed unwavering through every false goodbye
Bb                   Csus2
  Unsubsiding, pining,     for now and for never

[Chorus]
           D              F
There you were with your mirror
 D                    Em
Shining the world all over me
        Dm       C
There I was with my butterfly net
Bb                    C
Trying to catch your light


[Bridge]
Dm            C                      Ab
   Oh if only   the umbrella of the sky
              Bb
Could wrap us up and up
                 Dm            C                Bb
That's where I'd zoom in close, dilated as your eyes
                   Bb
But til then I'll keep it brief

[Verse 3]
N.C.
Faithful inertia, her bullet doesn't slow
N.C.
It seeks and finds me how far it goes, heaven help me
Dm                          Am
Take this bag of wings and drown it in the thames
     Bbm           Bb      C
And wake tomorrow, hollow, hardly forgetting

[Chorus]
           D   F D Em
There you were
        Dm       C
There I was with my butterfly net
Bb                    C
Trying to catch your light
