Blind Pilots

           D                       
I hope you never change. I hope you
 F#m
 never go.
              D                    
I hope you'll always keep our 
  F#m
little secret, though.
             G                 
But how'd we get here? -At this 
 D
height?
                F#m          G
And what's this talk of dead weight?
          D                        
I know we always drink, but we 
  F#m
don't always fight.
            D                      
The landing lights are on, but 
       F#m
we're just out of sight
                  G              
'cos this thing's mobile; There's 
       D
still wheels.
            F#m               G
And I'm not done yet, so hang on.

    D                              
You came along to change the grade;
    F#m
 To raise the bar I'd made of late.
Continues after the ad
    D                              
You came along to raise the stakes;
    F#m
 To tend to me and my mistakes.
  G                                
I can't pretend that I could be the
 D
 man you said you saw in me,
    F#m                         
But hang around and I'll try and 
           G
land this thing.

D            Bm
 No-one came; No-one saw.
D            Bm
 No-one came; No-one saw.
A                 G/B
 Someone pass the manual.

              D                    
And soon I'll go away. I'll see you
 F#m
 at the door.
          D               F#m
So go put David on; Read about the 
war.
                 G                 
We're just blind pilots in strange 
D
planes.
          F#m             G
Back seat drivers in dead cars.

[You came along...]
        D                     
Yeah, I made a list of all the 
             F#m
things that I could change: How I 
could win.
  D                             
I can't and I refuse to say the 
F#m
wheels have slowly come away.
  G                                
I pray to God my soul to keep 'cos I
D
 could never stand the heat.
    F#m                         
But hang around and I'll try and 
           G
land this thing.
