Butterfly Weezer
I noticed that the other chords posted for this song all started on 'G' which is slid up
from how it is played on the cd.
Here's is how it is played on the cd.
I know the riffs aren't 100% correct but it will work pretty well.

Verse 1:
[F#] Yester[Ebm]day I went out[B]side
With my m[C#]omma's mason [F#]jar
Ebm B RIFF 1 (Or play C#)
Caught a lovely Butterfly
[F#] When I[Ebm] woke up to[B]day
Looked in [C#]on my fairy [F#]pet
Ebm B RIFF 2(then back to B for a moment before going to C)
She had withered all away
No more sighing in her[C#] breast
Chorus:
I'm sorry for what I[F#] did
I did[Ebm] what my body[B] told me to
I[C#] didn't mean to do you[F#] harm
F#7 B RIFF 3 C#
Everytime I pin down what I think I want
It slips[F#] away - the[Ebm] ghost slips [B]aw- aaay
Verse 2 (same chords as verse 1):
I smell you on my hand for days
I can't wash away your scent
If I'm a dog then you're a bitch
I guess you're as real as me
Maybe I can live with that
Maybe I need fantasies
A life of chasing butterfly
Chorus:
I'm sorry for what I[F#] did
I did[Ebm] what my body[B] told me to
I[C#] didn't mean to do you[F#] harm
Everyt[F#7]ime I pin down[B] what I think I[C#] want
It slips[F#] away - the[Ebm] ghost slips[B] aw-aaay
(Stay on B)
Verse 3 (pretty much the same but slower):
[F#] I told[Ebm] you I would r[B]eturn
When the[C#] robin makes his[F#] nest
Ebm B RIFF 1 (Or play C#)
But I ain't never coming back
[F#]
[F#]I'm sorry
[Ebm]I'm sorry
[B]I'm sorry[F#]
