E
Her father fought in the great war
A E
In an aeroplane named Bree
He gave his love to a pretty girl
A E
And said, "Baby you're the one for me"
And though her name was Bree,
A E
He still found it all a shock
When he found out she was an airplane,
A
The stork began to knock
A
A baby girl was born
E
With air rudders on her back
A
She picked up airwave frequencies
E
And petrol was her favorite snack
A
Whale she bubbled noises like an airplane
E
Every time she sang
A
And her heart it loved so hungrily,
E
And roared like a Mustang
That's why they called her
Amaj7 E
Air heart

D
That girl was meant to fly
Bm A
So prep the runway

Air heart
D
That girl will soar away
E
She was an angel in her blue dress
A E
When Little Jimmy Wright took her to prom
The young pilot said he loved her,
A E
And oil began to clam her palm
Whale he was lost in the sky
And they said he had died,
Amaj7 E
But I know something more
They only found Jimmy's goggles,
A
In his plane upon the floor
Well years went by
And she still looked to the sky,
E
Her feelings did not disperse
A
She could fly any plane just like an ace
E
And kept goggles in her purse
A
And she swore she still heard Jimmy singing,
E
"That'll Be the Way Home"
A
It would haunt her from her radio
E
In each sky that she would roam
Jimmy's voice echoed
Amaj7 E
Air heart
Amaj7 E
Air heart
D
I'm sorry that I flew away
But just remember
Amaj7 E
Air heart
Amaj7 E
Air heart
D
Keep flapping and you'll soar one day
Lets Fly!

E Amaj7
Do you wanna sail into the sky?
E A
Soar across the stars?
E A
Sail into the sky?
E A
Soar across the stars?

Sail into the sky?
E A
Soar across the stars?
B
The stars?
C
The stars?!
D
The stars!
A
Then one fateful day
E
Ended with a storm streaked sky
A
Her plane crashed into the mountain side,
E
Was she flying much too high?
A
They only found Jimmy's goggles
E
In her plane upon the floor
A
I hope she's up there somewhere with him
E
Kissing on a cloudy shore
The birds were singing
Amaj7 E

So prep the runway
