Butterfly Weezer
I noticed that the other chords posted for this song all started on 'G' which is slid up
Here's is how it is played on the cd.
I know the riffs aren't 100% correct but it will work pretty well.
Tuning: Standard
Riff 1:
e|-------------------| B|----4-2------------| G|--------4-3-1-3----| D|--4-------------4--| A|-------------------| E|-------------------|
RIFF 2:
e|-------------------| B|----4-2------------| G|--------4-3-1-3-4--| D|--4----------------| A|-------------------| E|-------------------|
RIFF 3:
e|-------2-1-1----------| B|--4-4--------4-3-4----| G|-------------------3--| D|----------------------| A|----------------------| E|----------------------|
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 b**ch
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#]
