[D]
[G]
Butterflies begin [Cm] from having been [G] another
As a child is born [Cm] from being [A] in a [Eb] mother's womb
But how [C] many [Fm] times have you wished you were some [Bbm] other
[C] Someone [F] then who you are
[Eb] Yet [D] who's to say [Gm] that if all were uncovered
[Cm]
[D] You will like what [G] you see
[Em] [Am] You can only [D] be [E] you
[Am] As I can only [G] be me
[A]
[G] Flowers cannot bloom [Cm] until it is [A] their season
[G] As we would not be here [A] unless it was our [Eb] destiny
[Db] But how [C] [Fm] many times have you wished [Ab] to be in [Bbm] spaces
[C] Time, places, [F] then what you were
[Eb] Yet [D] who's to say [Gm] with [Fm] unfamiliar faces
[Cm]
[D] You could [G] anymore [Em] be
[Am]
[D] Loving you that you see
[Em] [Am] You can [D] only [G] be you
[Am] As [D] I can only be [G] me
[D]
I [G] [D]
[G] can only be me
