Melissa Schiller - Let It Live She Said by Misc Unsigned Bands

G                  C
today i saw a caterpillar in the grass.
G
don’t know it’s average speed,
    D
but it was crawling pretty fast.
G                        C
it climbed vertically up several backpack straps.
  G            D      G
i think it was on steroids.

G                       C
that little fuzzy thing crawled all over me.
G
don’t know if it was poisonous,
       D
but it couldn’t hurt a flea.
G                   C
everybody else said kill that little thing.
      G               D     G
but i said, what’d it do to you?

F      C       G
if you kill it now,
F       C          G
it will never grow into a small cocoon.
F     C          G
if it dies right now,
F       C            G
it will never get to see the autumn moon.

G                   C
they all think that caterpillars are worthless.
G
what if i think
        D
they’re heartless for saying that?
G                         C
the creature ran away and hid under a hat.
  G            D            G
i think it was scared of my friends.


and i said
F      C       G
if you kill it now,
F       C          G
it will never grow into a butterfly.
F     C          G
if it dies right now,
F       C            G
it will never get to spread its wings and fly.
F       C            G
it will never get to soar into the sky.
F       C            G
it will never get to tell its family goodbye.
