SKU: A0.1856555

Capture the tender storytelling, delicate acoustic guitar fingerpicking, and legendary emotional resonance of Bob Carlisle’s "Butterfly Kisses" with this professional Performance Lead Sheet. This chart provides the essential, complete form of the song—the definitive 1997 Grammy-winning hit—laid out in a continuous sequence to ensure you master the gentle, chronological flow from a child's bedtime to the walk down the aisle. It features the complete, conversational vocal melody, the iconic "with all that I've done wrong, I must have done something right" lyrics, and the sophisticated, major-key acoustic chord changes that define its signature sound, allowing you to capture the song's signature transition from an intimate, whisper-quiet verse to a world-class, high-energy emotional resolution. This is the definitive resource for musicians looking to master the technical poise and pure, sentimental spirit of this modern classic.

What is a “performance lead sheet”? A performance lead sheet streamlines chords, melody, and lyrics into a single continuous layout for tablets, eliminating repeats, D.S.’s, and codas so performers can simply page forward through the entire song. Each section—verse, chorus, bridge, and so on—is clearly labeled with rehearsal markers for quick navigation. The only repeats are self-contained vamps, kept on a single page to avoid page-turning backward. The goal is to make performing easier by presenting the song in its complete, best-known form so musicians can focus on playing rather than remembering forms or tricky sections. I originally created these for my own cover band, and they’ve made last-minute additions far more manageable. I hope they help you, too.
