Tabber:  Mark Albert 

     E         
Silver wings shining in the sunlight
        F#m                           B
Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight
                    E
They're taking you away and leaving me lonely
       F#m     B                   E
Silver wings slowly fading out of sight


      F#m          B
Don't leave me I cried
       E        Eo7       E
Don't take that airplane ride
         F#
But you locked me out of your mind
                         B
Left me standing here behind


       E         
Silver wings shining in the sunlight
        F#m                           B
Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight
                    E
They're taking you away and leaving me lonely
       F#m     B                   E
Silver wings slowly fading out of sight

NICE!!!!! I have always loved this song. Now I know how badly I was
butchering it. I was close though.
-whistlestop_son | 2/25/2003
What is "Eo7" ?
-tyler1501 | 8/27/2005
has anyone ever tabbed this out keyed in G like it is played by merle haggard. I had never heard of it being played in e until i visited this site to check something out for the g keyed version. However i can't find it anywhere tabbed out in G.
-agr472 | 9/12/2005
Merle has always did this song in E that I know of. I do know for a fact that the original version is in E. I have never heard him do it in G though. It would not be very difficult to change this tab over to G anyhow.

And can anyone tell me how to play the chord Eo7. It is found in the line "Don't leave me I cry; Don't take that airplane ride"
-tyler1501 | 9/16/2005
Capo 1, it's in key of F
-tyler wessel | 10/24/2005
Actually, On Merl Haggard 16 Greatest Hits, this is played in E.

However, when performing Merl was usually tuned down a half step playing it in F# or as it would appear a "G" chord, if this makes any sense. If played correctly on an acoustic you should be quick changing E E/A
as in Willies, Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain.
Check it out and play along with the above record. Excellent.

This is what I play where they wrote Eo7
