All My Little Words

Ab
You are a splendid butterfly
                               Fm
It is your wings that make you beautiful
                         Eb    C#
And I could make you fly away
                            Ab                    
But I could never make you stay
                               Ab
You said you were in love with me
                              Fm
Both of us know that that's impossible
                             Eb   C#
And I could make you rue the day
                           Ab
But I could never make you stay

                       Eb    C#
Not for all the tea in China
                           Ab
Not if I could sing like a bird
                      Eb    C#
Not for all North Carolina
                      Ab
Not for all my little words
                         Eb    C#
Not if I could write for you
                           Ab
The sweetest song you ever heard
                            Eb   C#
It doesn't matter what I'll do
                       Ab
Not for all my little words

                                Ab
Now that you've made me want to die
                             Fm
You tell me that you're unboyfriendable
                            Eb    C#
And I could make you pay in pain
                           Ab
But I could never make you stay
