What is this thing in life
DmGm
that persuades me to spend time away from you?

If you can answer this you can have the moon.

This is the place to be
DmGm

Distractions, like butterflies are buzzing round my head,
Gm/FEbF
when Im alone I think of you.
GmGm/FEb
And the life wed lead if we could only be free
FBbGm
from these distractions.
The postmans at the door
while the telephone rings on the kitchen wall,
pretend were not at home and theyll disappear.
I want to be with you,
tell me what I can do, nothing is too small
away from all this jazz we could do anything at all.
Distractions, like butterflies are...
Inter:(Am Bm7 Em Am Bm7 Em E7/9 Am Bm7 Em Am Gm)
Ill find a peaceful place
far away from the noise of a busy day,
where we can spend our nights counting shooting stars.
Distractions, like butterflies are buzzing round my head,
when Im alone I think of you,
and the things wed do if we could only be through
with these distractions, like butterflies are buzzing round my head,
when Im alone I think of you,
And the life wed lead if we could only be free
form these distractions.
