Benjamin Francis Leftwich - Is That You On That Plane (In The Open (EP), 2012)

Hey guys. I hope you have fun playing this really simple but beautiful song.

Standard tuning, no capo.

NOTE: I play the Emaj7 chord in the following way:
e|---|
B|-4-|  Of course you may play it differently,
G|-1-|  (as it might be hard to do for beginners)
D|-2-|  but this way it has the same effect
A|-2-|  as in Benjamin's studio version.
E|-0-|




Intro: G#m  F#  Ebm  E    G#m  F#  Ebm  E  Emaj7


  G#m                F#
I know that you are leaving
      Ebm               E
but I hope that you can stay
    G#m                 F#
The hardest part about healing
    Ebm                E    Emaj7
was knowing what you?d say

          G#m                   F#
When your garden was covered in snow, love
        Ebm                     E
I could tell what you wanted to say
    G#m                      F#
And then when you called me again, love
    Ebm                          E   (mute)
You told me you were going to break

  
                            G#m         F#
        Is that you on that plane     oh~
                           Ebm          E
        Is that you in the sky again  oh~


  G#m                    F#
I know that it's been through, yeah
         Ebm                 E
'cause I hear it in your voice
  G#m               F#
I know you tried to fight it
        Ebm                E  Emaj7
Did you ever have a choice

        G#m                        F#
When we walked through Rome in the evening
        Ebm                 E
getting high in little bars
   G#m                        F#
At least we took what we were seeing 
    Ebm                          E   (mute)
and kept it in our little hearts


                            G#m         F#
        Is that you on that plane     oh~
                           Ebm          E
        Is that you in the sky again  oh~
                            G#m         F#
        Is that you on that plane     oh~
                           Ebm          E  Emaj7
        Is that you in the sky again  oh~


E                    F#                  |                e|---|
Oh, let it go, it is done now            |  During this   B|-0-|
         E                      F#       |  part, play    G|-3-|
You have rolled and rolled away          |  the F# chord  D|-4-|
       E                      F#         |  like this:    A|-4-|
Let it never be said you were missing    |                E|-2-|
       G#m          F#         E  F#     
'cause you're never missing to me

  G#m                F#
I know that you are leaving
      Ebm               E
but I hope that you can stay
    G#m                 F#
The hardest part about healing
    Ebm                    E    Emaj7
was knowing what you would say


End on: G#m
