Capo's on second, standard tuning.
GSinking like a burst balloon
with the weight that's in your Ameyes
Ghit the brakes before you crash
you're black and blue from Amtrying
            C*
caterpillar crawling
they love to watch you Gfalling
                       C*
they'll always put you down
                          G-D  
they love to watch you falling
so Amhold on to the feeling inside you
when you're dreaming
you world is on fire and you're Galive
Amhold on and don't let it stop you from believing
                               G-D  
the butterfly couldn't always fly
Gborn again you're beautiful
and back to change the Amworld
you're Gfar too young to know it all
and too old not to Amcare
               C*
life was never fair
                          G-D  
they love to watch you falling
so Amhold on to the feeling inside you
when you're dreaming
you world is on fire and you're Galive
Amhold on and don't let it stop you from believing
the butterfly couldn't always Gfly
Amhold on and don't let it stop you from believing
                               G-D  
the butterfly couldn't always fly
GNaa-Naa-nananananana, Naa-Naa-nananananana
AmNaa-Naa-nananananana, Naa-Naa-nananananana
CNaa-Naa-nananananana, Naa-Naa-nananananana
                      G-D  
Naa-Naa-nananananana-aa 
C* sounds nice when I release the middle finger from the e
Have fun!

Capo's on second, standard tuning.

Sinking like a burst balloon

with the weight that's in your eyes

hit the brakes before you crash

you're black and blue from trying

caterpillar crawling

they love to watch you falling

they'll always put you down

G D

they love to watch you falling

so hold on to the feeling inside you

when you're dreaming

you world is on fire and you're alive

hold on and don't let it stop you from believing

G D

the butterfly couldn't always fly

born again you're beautiful

and back to change the world

you're far too young to know it all

and too old not to care

life was never fair

G D

they love to watch you falling

so hold on to the feeling inside you

when you're dreaming

you world is on fire and you're alive

hold on and don't let it stop you from believing

the butterfly couldn't always fly

hold on and don't let it stop you from believing

G D

the butterfly couldn't always fly

Naa-Naa-nananananana, Naa-Naa-nananananana

G D

Naa-Naa-nananananana-aa

C* sounds nice when I release the middle finger from the e

Have fun!
