Lyrics
You (Fsus2)tucked me in, turned (C)out the light;
(Dm7)kept me safe and (C)sound at night.
(F)Lit tle girls de (C)pend on things like that.
(Fsus2)Brushed my teeth and (C)combed my hair;
(Dm7)had to drive me (C)ev ’ry where.
(F)You were al ways (C)there when I looked back.
You had to do it all a (C)lone, make a (Dm7)liv ing, make a (C)home.
It (F)must have been as (C)hard as it could be.
And when I could n’t sleep at (C)night, scared things (Dm7)would n’t turn out (C)right,
(F)you would hold my (C)hand and sing (Dm7)me:
(C)“Cat er pil lar in the (C)tree, (F)how you won der who you’ll be.
(C)Can’t go (G)far, but (Am)you can (C)al ways (D)dream.
(C)Wish you may and wish you (C)might; (F)don’t you wor ry, hold on tight.
I (C)prom ise (G)you (Am)there will (C)come a day,
(Gsus)but ter fly, (G)fly a way.”
(F)But ter fly, fly a way.
(Dm7)Got your wings now, (C)you can’t stay.
(Fsus2)Take those dreams and (C)make them all come (Dm7)true.
(F)But ter fly, fly a way.
(Dm7)You’ve been wait ing (C)for this day.
(Fsus2)All a long, you’ve (C)known just what to (Dm7)do.
(Fsus2)But ter fly,
(C)but ter fly,
(Dm7)but ter fly,
but ter fly, (G)fly a way.
