[D]
[E]
It's an airline [A] plane, [E] flies to [A] heaven [E] every day, [A] passing through [E] the gates.
You're a rabbit's dream, [A] have your ticket [E] in your hand, but [A] what [E] is it made of?
The world [A] looks round, [E] and [A] your money's [E] been gone, [A] your friends [E] turned away.
You can get away to heaven on [A] this [E] airplane, just bow your head and pray.
[A] [E] [A] [E] One's got ears [A] at the mirror, [E] and one's got [F#m] eyes at [B] the seat.
[E] Turn your eyes [A] to the lord of the [E] skies, take this airline plane, and take it home again.
[B] [E] Dear home, the eye of the skies, let a lot of people guess.
[A] Some say no, and some [E] say yes, [A] and take some, [E] leave some behind.
But you will [A] surely know, [E] when [A] the airport go [E] home, [A] to leave this [E] world behind.
You're allowed to [A] speak your speech, [E] [A] you're allowed to preach your [E] speech, when [A] you lay there, [E] so you're glad.
You can hold your head and pray, it's [A] the only earthly [E] way.
[A] You can [E] fly to heaven on time, you can fly to heaven on time.
One's got ears at the mirror, and one's got eyes at [B] the seat.
[E] Turn your eyes [A] to the lord of the [E] skies, take this airline plane, and take it home again.
[B]
[A] Dear home, the [E] eye of the skies, we can get you [A] uptame, [E] when [A] this airline [E] plane, [A] will leave you [E] sins behind.
You've got to take [A] this flight, [E] maybe [A] at daytime, [E] maybe at night, [A] [E]
[A] [E] if you can't see [A] your way through [E] blood.
One's got ears at [A] the mirror, [E] and one's got [C#] eyes at [B] the seat.
[E] Turn your eyes [A] to the lord of the [E] skies, take this airline plane, and take it home again.
[B]
[E] Dear home, the eye of the skies.
