G
He was a flyer for the Air ForceOn a plane from San Antonio
I was traveling to London
He was going off to Buffalo
C Changing planes in Pittsburgh G We got grounded in a storm D Now, I would give anything G To be on that flyer's arm G We played cards, mostly blackjack
As we sat out on the tarmac
We sang songs we knew in Spanish
As we both loved songs of language
C He'd heard me on the radio G I'd seen the flyers on San Antone D Now, I would give anything G To have that flyer for my own C God bless the flyer G Who would be flying home tonight D I would give anything G To see that flyer, flyin' tonight A He said he'd never married
'cause, his heart was in the clouds
And I said I was too clumsy
That I broke the wings of the loves I found
D He shouted out his name to me A As I ran to make my flight E Now, I would give anything A To see that flyer, flyin' tonight G One year I watched a war in London
In the airport leaving London
And I wondered if I'd know him
If I saw his wings in motion
C Did I leave my heart in Pittsburgh... G In the lightening of that flight? D I wish that you could tell me now G Will he be flyin' home tonight? C God bless the flyer G Who would be flying home tonight D I would give anything G To see that flyer, flyin' tonight C God bless the flyer G Who would be flying home tonight D I would give anything G To see that flyer, flyin' tonight
