[Verse 1]
G C
Listen up to what I say
D Em C
Fill your own cup if you're tired of me

Can't you see that life's a bitch

G C
A heavy load, heavy mind
D Em C
Out on the road we never had too much time

You don't know how it feels
D Em C
To go so slow, rollin' on a rubber wheel
[Chorus]
G C
But if I had an airplane, if I had wings

I'd go flying over every sorrowful thing
G C
I'd fly to Tennessee just for the day
D Em C
Lay me down easy, just to while my blues away
N.C. G
If I had an airplane
