D                         em   A                      D
Southern winds on runway three I can hear the engines calling
                     em   A                          D
Like an arrow flying free and the rain just keeps on falling
                          em     A                         D
And the tremblin? asphalt shines like a knife she cuts the silence
                           em     A            D       
Till she takes off and she glides on to the horizon.


*Chorus:
         G         A                     D     
Over the mountains freedom?s more than a word in the wind
                     em                  
All the sorrows your heart held in fear 
A                    D  
Left behind now they all disappear
G                      D 
And whatever seemed so mighty and tall
A                  D
Ain?t so big after all.

                         em   A                           D 
Here I?m standing in the haze I can hear the clouds she?s climbing
                         em   A                       D
As her tail light?s fade away till my eyes no longer find ?em
                      em    A                      D
There?s the echo of a sound hear it humming in the distance
                          em   A         D
Like she?s calling out my name I have no resistance.



*Chorus

*Solo (Chorus instrumental)

                      em    A                     D 
Now it?s silent everywhere rain is creepin? in my shoes and
                      em  A                    D
I smell coffee in the air realize that I could use one
                       em  A                    D
And where ever she may fly wonders of the world unravel
                        em   A                 D
Over hills and trees so high that?s where I?ll travel.
