VERSE 1
C
I was in the air when the towers came down
G Em
In a bar on the 84th floor
C G
I bought Philippe Petit a round
D C
And asked what his high wire was for
C
He said "I put one foot on the wire
G Em
One foot straight into heaven
C G
As the prophets entered boldly into the bar
D C D C
On the Boeing 737 Lord on the Boeing 737"

Hey little bird would you be the one

To nest beneath my Gatling gun?

There's nothing left I call my own
G C
Come down and build me a home

Trying to leave all my sins

The barmaid asked my order

And where my mind had been

Philippe and his foot there in heaven

On the Boeing 737 Lord on the Boeing 737
