Awful sweet to be a little butterfly.

Just wingin' over things and nothin' deep in-side

Nothing goin' goin' wild in you you know.

Or maybe cool to be a little summer wind
Bb5A5
Like once through everything, and then away a-gain.
Fmaj7E7
with a taste of dust in your mouth all day, but no need to know.
CBb
Like sadness. you just sail away.
[Chorus]
Am
'cause you know,

I don't do sadness, not even a little bit.

Just don't need it in my life, don't want any part of it.

I don't do sadness,
BbFmaj7
Hey I've done my time. Lookin back on it all man it blows my mind.
