Up and Gone - Rock song commission (Patreon)

Here's one that's supposed to sound like third eye blind. How'd I do? I sure like this one a lot.

Lyrics:

Up and Gone 

A D/A Em/A  D/A

Headed to, the next state, got no plans, can’t be late

A    D/A Em/A  D/A

Carry-on, extra fee, not for him, got it free

G   A

Now he calls the tower to gather all the information

G F#7

“Are we cleared for take off, and hey  are we expecting any storms?

 E E/F# G

If you never hit the ground, you can’t die

  E E/F# G

we’ll divorce the earth and marry the sky

Chorus:

N.C |Em. G. D. . .(w/ riff)| x4

Yeah, we’re up and gone! (sing 4 times)

A D/A   Em/A 

Flying foxes, well just look around, more likely than you’d think

D/A

you might find them hangin’ out in the pilot’s lounge

A  D/A

From Phoenix up to Reno, find the jet stream and carry me off

 Em/A

Out of this world, are those nose-prints on the windows?

D/A

eatin’ up the miles like they’re cheesy jalapeños 

G A

15 thousand feet can eliminate our consternation

G  F#7

Those traffic jams and big-rigs roll on somewhere far below

If you never hit the ground, you can’t die

we’ll divorce the earth and marry the sky

Chorus

Instrumental Jam on Chorus chords |Em. G. D. . .(w/ riff)| x4

If you never hit the ground, you can’t die

we’ll divorce the earth and marry the sky

if you never go, you’ll always ask why

(Every morning when he gets up out of bed there’s no)

Climb aboard your wings and baby you’ll fly

(ticket counter no TSA, you just start the engines and fly away)

Jam on D for 4 bars

Chorus x2 (last line acoustic guitar, sung down an octave)
