Story behind the song
I have a neighbour named Summer Butterfly
Lyrics
Summer Butterfly Verse 1 D Bm G A Summer Butterfly worked at a bakery. The prettiest little ojibway I ever did see D Bm G A She made the best wood oven bread , made sure I bought a loaf every day G A D Bm The smell of that fresh baked bread, made me long for the next time G A D Just to see Summer Butterfly and what she had to say Chorus D G A D Bm The crust has just been buttered; its guaranteed to bring out the aroma G A D So try to let it cool, before you take a bite D G A D Bm Shea's as sweet as an angel, with that pretty ojibway smile G A D She casted a spell and in love I fell, with Summer Butterfly. Verse 2 D Bm G A Summera was closing the bakery, as I got the nerve to say D Bm G A If by chance do you need a ride home, she smiled and quickly said G A D Bm I'm so glad that you came by, because I made this just for you G A D Freshly baked butter tarts and oh by the way Chorus Chorus , Solo and Bridge Summer Butterfly is now my wife, our kids and I love her so Now when she bakes our house is filled with love at home Chorus tag Written by Clem Gareau and Larry Vannatta All rights reserved ? 2010

Hi Clem and larry, Excellent collab. Really like the story line very abstract but you made it very real as well. Fun melody and good vocals and of course I liked the harmony parts. Nice work!!
