[F]
[Bb]
[F]
Down at the train they go to independence [Dm] every day
But
[F] anywhere else there's no one like a million miles [Dm] away
And I must [Bb] have been [F] high [Gm] to believe that [Bb] I would ever [Dm] leave
And [Bb] I'm just a flight by [F] the line I go to the skyline
[Bb] [F] I rode on the airstream across the great long summit [D] through
[Bb] [Dm] And [F] I wished hard enough, good hope, and fast enough to catch [Dm] the moon
But I must [Bb] have been [F] dreaming [Bb] again
Cause there's [Bb] nothing around [Dm] the bend except [Bb] for that flight [C] by the line
[F] And the dust on my hands
[Bb]
[Ab] [Bb]
[Ab] [Bb]
[Ab] [Eb] [Gm]
[C] [F] [Bb]
[F] was far up so [C] near
[F] And I picked that station [Dm] from the [G] roof
[Dm] [G] [F] Left such an indelible scar in the sky for a [Dm] picture book
[G]
[D] And [E] [Bb] I watched the black [Dm] clouds roll in chasing [Bb] me [F] back
[Gm] [F] And [Bb] I got that flight
[C] [F] into the [C]
[F] skyline
[Bb] [F] Into the skyline
[Bb] Into [F] the [C] [F]
[Eb] skyline
