              oh why cant i


each verse is sung x2

[A]   [Am7]   [D]          [C]
Butterfly, delicately as it flies
[A]     [Am7]    [D]                [C]
Into the sky,breeze carries it ever so high


chorus

[A7]      [E7]
oh why cant i,
[A7]      [E7]
oh why cant i,
    [A]    [Am7]   [D]    [C]
oh why cant i fly,
    [A]    [Am7]   [D]    [C]
like a butterfly


swiftly by,as it goes pretty and so many colours
seems so shy,i just wanna hold it but on it flutters

chorus

gently it lands,on the most beautiful red flower
as it eats the nectar,i sit there and watch it for hours

chorus

pure and innocent,living in its own bubble
its never any worry,and its never any trouble

chorus & instrumental of 1 verse

chorus

[A]      [Am7]   [D]   [C]
Into the sky
[A]      [Am7]   [D]   [C]
ever so high
[A]      [Am7]      [D]   [C]
delicately it flies
[A]      [Am7]    [D]  [C]
oh how i wish i
[A]      [Am7]        [D]              [C]
butterfly,butterfly,butterfly,butterfly
[A]      [Am7]        [D]               [C]
butterfry,butterfly,butterfly,butterfly
[A]      [Am7]   
and fly away
[D]      [C]
far from here
[A]      [Am7]   
oh fly away
[D]      [C]
swiftly by
     [A]         [Am7]      [D]               [C]
like a butterfly,butterfly,butterfly,butterfly
[A]      [Am7]     [D]    [C]
oh why cant i fly
[A]      [Am7]     [D]    [C]
like a butterfly
[A]      [Am7]     [D]    [C]
like a butterfly.

Re: oh why cant i?

D.L.C. - I admire the lyrical simplicity of your songs.  Very much like the way you paint delightful pictures in a few well-chosen words.  Is this new song on your MySpace yet?


In contrast, my stuff seems so wordy and verbose - I shall strive for the elegant clarity you achieve.  James

Re: oh why cant i?

Hi Donna,


I have been very busy lately and only just got around to looking at "Oh Why Can't I?". I too like the lyrics and the chord sequence, it is a lovely song. I am looking forward to hearing you sing it when you have uploaded to MySpace. Be sure to let us know when you do so.


Thank you,


Roger
