[C] [G] [F] [C]

[C]Come that wicked [E]wind,
to pick you [Am]up and carry [F]you off eastward,
[C]Though I did re[G]lease you
for to [F]seek a warmer [G]sky

[C]Should you be blown [E]back
know that [Am]I will always [F]run to greet you,
[C]still surprised to [G]catch you
every [F]time [C]

[F]Armed with this small [G]butterfly net [C]only
[F]I will face the [G]world alone
and [C]never be [G]lonely

So [C]come that wicked [E]wind,
and if you [Am]go, you could be [F]gone forever
[C]I will play a [G]while here
by and [F]by and by and [C]by

[C]Up and up you [E]go
for to [Am]steal the secrets [F]of the heavens
[C]will you share them [G]with me
my [F]bright and brilliant [G]spy?

[C]Should you be blown [E]back
know that [Am]I will always [F]run to greet you,
[C]still surprised to [G]catch you
every [C]time [F]
[C]still surprised to [G]catch you
by and [F]by and by and [C]by
