[Chorus 1]
G Bm
A moth is not a butterfly
C D
And I know why, I know why
G Bm
It kind of makes you want to cry
C D G
That a moth is not a butterfly

[Verse 1]
Em Bm
But some are happy in the bluest sky
Em Am
And others search in the dark of night
Em Bm
And sadness is a silent right
Am D E
A moth is not a butterfly

[Chorus 2]
G Bm
A stone is not a grain of sand
C D
It's hard, I guess, to understand
G Bm
Both broken parts scatter the land
C D G
A stone is not a grain of sand

[Verse 2]
Em Bm
And one has lived for longer still
Em Am
The other longs to break until
Em Bm
The wind can lift it in its hand
Am D E
A stone is not a grain of sand

[Chorus 3]
G Bm
A desert's not a mountainside
C D
And I know why, I know why
G Bm
'cause one is vast and one divides
C D G
A desert's not a mountainside

[Verse 3]
Em Bm
'cause one has need for open space
Em Am
The other simply in its place
Em Bm
It must be known far and wide
Am D E
That a desert's not a mountainside

[Chorus 4]
G Bm
A moth is not a butterfly
C D
And I know why, I know why
G Bm
It kind of makes you want to cry
