Benjamin Francis Leftwich - Is That You On That Plane (In The Open (EP), 2012)
Hey guys. I hope you have fun playing this really simple but beautiful song.
Standard tuning, no capo.
NOTE: I play the Emaj7 chord in the following way:
e|---|
B|-4-| Of course you may play it differently,
G|-1-| (as it might be hard to do for beginners)
D|-2-| but this way it has the same effect
A|-2-| as in Benjamin's studio version.
E|-0-|
Intro: G#m F# Ebm E G#m F# Ebm E Emaj7
G#m F#
I know that you are leaving
Ebm E
but I hope that you can stay
G#m F#
The hardest part about healing
Ebm E Emaj7
was knowing what you’d say
G#m F#
When your garden was covered in snow, love
Ebm E
I could tell what you wanted to say
G#m F#
And then when you called me again, love
Ebm E (mute)
You told me you were going to break
G#m F#
Is that you on that plane oh~
Ebm E
Is that you in the sky again oh~
G#m F#
I know that it's been through, yeah
Ebm E
'cause I hear it in your voice
G#m F#
I know you tried to fight it
Ebm E Emaj7
Did you ever have a choice
G#m F#
When we walked through Rome in the evening
Ebm E
getting high in little bars
G#m F#
At least we took what we were seeing
Ebm E (mute)
and kept it in our little hearts
G#m F#
Is that you on that plane oh~
Ebm E
Is that you in the sky again oh~
G#m F#
Is that you on that plane oh~
Ebm E Emaj7
Is that you in the sky again oh~
