Calm that wicked wind to pick you up
F F
And carry you off eastward
C C G7 G7
Though I did release you
F F G7 G7
For to seek a warmer sky
C C E7 E7
Should you be blown back
Am Am F F
Know that I will always run to greet you,
C C G7 G7 F F C C
Still surprised to catch you every time
F F C C
Armed with this small butterfly net only
F F
I will face the world alone
C C G7 G7
And never be lonely
C C E7 E7
So calm that wicked wind,
Am Am F F
And if you go, you could be gone forever
C C G7 G7
I will wait a while here

For to steal the secrets of the heavens

Will you share them with me

My bright & brilliant spy?

Should you be blown back
Am Am F F
Know that I will always run to greet you,
C C G7 G7 C C F F
Still surprised to catch you every time
C C G7 G7
Still surprised to catch you
F F C C
By and by and by and by

This is great, thank you! To me playing G7 instead of C on "my bright and brilliant spy" sounds closer to the song but I could be misremembering.
