(Intro.)
|(G) / / / |(C) / / / |(G) / / / |(C) / / /

(Verse 1)
I'd take this (Em)plane straight to (C)Heaven
If that's (Em) where it could (C)go
'Cause every-(Em)body's asking (C)questions
And I've got (Em)questions (D)of my (C)own
You could have (Em)told me you were (C)hurtin'
That you were (Em)footsteps from the (C)edge
And I'd have (Em)suited up my (C)armor
To fight that (Em)war in-(D)side your (C)head

(Chorus)
How'd it get so (G/B)bad that you were (C)convinced
that your (Em)story had to (D)end?
Were you (G/B)locked inside a (C)dark room
As the (Em)walls were caving (D)in?
Did you feel so a-(G/B)lone, couldn't pick up the (C)phone?
I just (Em)can/fBt make it mak„u (D)sense
But I would (G)take this plan„u (C)all the way to (Em)Heaven
If I could (D)talk to you again

(Instrumental)
|(G) / (C) / |(C) / (G) / Mmm(C) /

(Verse 2)
I'd take this (Em)plane straight to (C)Heaven
'Cause I'm (Em)missin' you right (C)now
You up and (Em)left this empty (C)space here
And now the (Em)quiet's way (D) too loud (C)
And itfs been (G)two years since you (C)left us
There ain't a (G)day that (D/F#)it seems (C) fair
And I get (Em)mad, but I find (C)solace
'Cause I know (Em)Godfs got (D)you up there (C)

(Refrain)
But howfd it get so (G/B)bad that you were (C)convinced
that your (Em)story had to (D)end?
Were you (G/B)locked inside a (C)dark room
as the (Em)walls were caving (D)in?
Did you feel so a-(G/B)lone, couldn't pick up the (C)phone?
I just (Em)can't make it make (D)sense
But I would (G/B)take this plane (C)all the way to (Em)Heaven
If I could (D)talk to you again (C)
Mmm, (D)talk to you again (C) / / / (Em) /

(Outro.)
(D) Did you feel so a-(G/B)lone, couldn't pick up the (C)phone?
I just (Em)can't make it make (D)sense
But I would (G/B)take this plane (C)all the way to (Em)Heaven (D)
Yeah, I would (G/B)take this plane (C)all the way to (Em)Heaven
I can't (G/B)take this plane (C)all the way to (Em)Heaven
But I'll (D)talk to you again - - -
