Strum
D-DU-UDU
Southern  winds on runway three I  can hear the engines calling
 Like an arrow flying free and  the rain just keeps on falling
 And the tremblin´ asphalt  shines  like a knife she cuts  the silence
 Till she takes off and she glides on  to the horizon.
 Over the mountains freedom´s  more than  a word in the wind
 All the sorrows your heart  held in fear
Left  behind now they all  disappear
And  whatever seemed so mighty  and tall
Ain´t  so big after  all.
 Here I´m standing in  the  haze I can hear the clouds she´s  climbing
 As her tail light´s  fade  away till my eyes no longer  find ´em
 There´s the echo  of a sound  hear it humming in  the distance
 Like she´s calling out  my  name I have  no resistance.
 Chorus instrumental)
 Now it´s silent everywhere  rain is creepin´  in my shoes and
 I smell coffee in the air realize  that I could use  one
 And where ever she may fly wonders  of the world unravel
 Over hills and trees so high that´s  where  I´ll travel.
