Verse 1
A 
Am 
Dm 
On the train you see an  image
E 
A 
Passed by your eyes
Am 
Dm 
A woman combing her long brown hair,
E 
A 
a child starting to cry
Am 
Dm 
But it shoots right past   the window
E 
A 
and out of your mind
Dm 
Leave you just a brief impression
E 
as it passes on by
A 
Dm 
E 
There was something that I saw, you said
Am 
Can you pull on the cord?
E 
It might be against the law, you read
Am 
But you've just got to see more
Dm 
E 
Am 
So let me nail down this butterfly
Dm 
E 
Am 
Even if it  kills it to try
Dm 
E 
Am 
Cause I'm not buying your alibi
Dm 
Fdim 
E 
Am 
Cause it's paler than the whitest lie
A 
Am 
Dm 
At the end of  the evening,
E 
A 
when the band's gone to bed
Am 
Dm 
And the last call for alcohol
E 
A 
has sailed over your head
Am 
And a hundred conversation
Dm 
E 
A 
s screech to an end
Am 
Dm 
And a play for a lover
E 
is just another new friend
A 
E 
Am 
A 
E 
I  was in the middle of a joke, I said
Am 
Can I punch out the line?
E 
I was working on a speech, I said
Am 
That might have changed your mind
A 
Dm 
E 
Am 
So let me nail down this butterfly,
Dm 
E 
Am 
even if it  kills it to try
E 
Dm 
E 
Am 
Cause I'm not buying your alibi
