Butterfly Kisses
By: Bob Charliles
Am C
There's two things I know for sure.
Am C
She was sent here from heaven, and she's daddy's little girl.
Dm C F G
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night,
Dm C F G
she talks to Jesus, and I close my eyes.
F G C F
And I thank God for all of the joy in my life,
G
oh but most of all, for...
F C G C
Butterfly Kisses after bedtime prayer
F C G Am
Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair
F C
"Walk beside the pony daddy it's my first ride"
F C
"I know the cake looks funny daddy, but I sure tried"
F G Am F (let it ring)
With all I've done wrong I must have done something right
F G C
To deserve her hug every morning and butterfly kisses at night
Am C
Sweet sixteen today,
Am C
She's looking like her momma a little more everyday.
Dm C F G
One part woman, the other part girl.
Dm C F G
To perfume and makeup, from ribbons and curls.
F G C F G
Trying her wings out in a great big world. But I remember...
F C G C
Butterfly Kisses after bedtime prayer
F C G Am
Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair
F C
"You know how much I love you daddy, but if you dont mind..
F C
I'm only going to kiss you on the cheak this time
F G Am F (let it ring)
With all I've done wrong I must have done something right
F G C
To deserve her hug every morning and butterfly kisses at night
(I dont know about this part really, sorry)
D# Dm
All the precious time.
C
Like the wind, the years go by
D# Dm
Precious butterfly.
F G
Spread your wings and fly
Am C
She'll change her name today.
Am C
She'll make a promise, and I'll give her away.
Dm C F G
Standing in the bride room just staring at her,
Dm C F G
She asked me what I'm thinking, and I said "I'm not sure,
F G C F
I just feel like I'm losing my baby girl."
G
Then she leaned over....an gave me....
F C G C
Butterfly Kisses with her mamma there
F C G Am
Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair
F C
"Walk me down the aisle, daddy, it's just about time"
F C
"Does my wedding gown look pretty, daddy?" "Daddy, don't cry."
F G Am F (let it ring)
With all I've done wrong I must have done something right
F G
To deserve her love every morning and butterfly kisses
F G
I couldn't ask God for more, man, this is what love is
F G
I know I've gotta let her go, but I'll always remember
F G C (let it ring)
Every hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses...
