[Gb]
I'm a humble man, [Ab] and I can't get asleep.
[Bb] They wind [C] me up and [Gb] let me go.
I'm a candle wind, [Ab] going out of my mind.
[D] My time is [C] coming [N] soon.
[E] [Gb] I'm a humble jet, [Ab] with a brand new set.
[Bb] I'm destined [C] to the next [Gb] and crew.
I spread my wings, [Ab] to a thousand things.
[Bb] You're probably [C] the one, [Gb] who knew.
[E] [Db]
[Eb] [Gb] [E] [G]
[Gm] Meanwhile in the cargo of a scargo,
the temperature [F] is rising, advertising that [Eb] our time,
[Am] is running down, down, down, [D] down, down.
[G] Oh, with [Ab] just one minute to live.
[Db]
[C] Oh, no you'll never get me up in [Bb] one of these again.
[Ab] Cause what goes up, [Bb] must come [Dm] [Am] down.
Down, down, down, [Dm] down, down.
[G]
[Dm] Oh, [G]
the gravity of the [Dm] situation.
[G]
[C] It's only my [Gb] willpower that gets your thing in [C] operation.
[Gb] [F] But we're gonna crash that for [B] certain.
[F] The pilot is too busy [G] flirting.
[C] And he ain't aware that there's a [Bb] bomb down there.
[E] If we don't do something, [F] it's [G] curtain.
[Bm] [Gb]
Now just hold on, [Ab] said the little bomb.
[Bb] If you were [Gb] just to hold my hand.
Then time would stop, [Ab] the clock would flop.
[Bb] And Jumbo [C] would be safe [N] to land.
[Db] [Cm] My roommates, [D] are the envy, [C] of [Fm] subpoena, [C] lamp and dam.
Try to [Fm] do good [Ab] to Japan, I'd say.
[Eb] Kudu Marines, [B] what a safe little plane.
[E] What a fine little plane, [Ab] what a great little plane [Dbm] I am.
[Gbm]
[Dbm] [Eb]
[Db] [D] [Eb] [F]
[Gb] Hang on one sec, [Ab] I'm a clockwork wreck.
[Bb] Even though [C] my fuse is [Gb] burning slow.
Must keep my gate, [Ab] to detonate, [Bb] the bikers [C] are inferior.
