Verse 1
       C                             Em                     ---- guitars 1 & 2
I fell down… down… down…  into this… dark and lonely hole…
          Am                      F
There was no… one… there… to care about me… anymore…
      C                 Em                             Am
And I needed… a way… to climb and grab a hold…  of the edge…
                          F
You were sitting… there…  holding a rope…

Chorus 1
             C
And we'll go up… up… up…
         Em
But I'll fly a little higher…
   Am                               F
Go up…  in the clouds…  because the view’s…  a little nicer…
   C               Em
Up here… … …   my… dear… … …
            Am
It won't be long now… 
            F
It won't be long now…

Verse 2
When we get back… on… land…  well I'll never get my chance…
Be ready… to… live… and it'll be ripped right out my hands…
And may…be someday…  we'll take… a little ride…
Go up… up… up… and everything… will be just fine…

Chorus 2
We'll go up… up… up…
But I'll fly a little higher…
Go up…  in the clouds…  because the view’s…  a little nicer…
Up here… … …   my… dear… … …
It won't be long now… 
It won't be long now…

Bridge
   Em    Am                          F
If only…    I had a little bit more… time…
   Em    Am                          F             G
If only…    I had a little bit more… time…  with…  you…

Verse 3
We could go up… up… up…  and take that little ride…
We’ll sit there holding hands…  and everything… will be just right…
May…be someday… I'll see you again…
We'll float up in the clouds… and we'll never… see the end…

Chorus 3
We'll go up… up… up…
But I'll fly a little higher…
Go up…  in the clouds…  because the view’s…  a little nicer…
Up here… … …   my… dear… … …
It won't be long now…
It won't be long now…  … … …
