The Airway

A          Bm    F#m
When I am fast asleep
A           Bm      F#m      D
I dream and see you floating high above me
A        Bm    F#m
And I awake at dawn
A          Bm         F#m            D
Before the rays of morning paint the front lawn
A           Bm      F#m
From on the bedroom floor
A           Bm          F#m       D
I watch you sailing far above the seashore

A        Bm      F#m
In deep Atlantic skies
    A        Bm     F#m           D             A
You float as I look aft to watch the moon rise
   Bm      F#m
Above the avenue
  A        Bm      F#m               D
I search among the clouds, trying to see you
A           Bm      F#m
But you are just a blur
       A        Bm      F#m        D
In the sky when you parachute over the harbor


D     A     E
I can see
                   D       A           E
You above with the ocean around me
           D     A     E
If I could only stay
    F#m         D      A     E
Overhead in the airway
    D     A       E
You sail through
                      D       A           E
Endless sky with the evening around you
             D      A      E
When I'm out on the bay
       F#m        D      A    E
You're aloft in the airway


A          Bm     F#m
When I'm alone at night
  A         Bm        F#m               D
I dream you paint the stars against the twilight
A            Bm   F#m
Suspended in the air
  A         Bm         F#m          D
I wish your silhouette would always stay there
A         Bm     F#m
When I am on the beach
  A         Bm      F#m       D
I watch you held aloft way out of my reach


A         Bm        F#m
But I can not take flight
   A      Bm      F#m              D
Or float upon the air the way that you might
A      Bm        F#m
When I am in the sea
    A           Bm      F#m            D
You gazed down from the sky, trying to see me
A        Bm     F#m
But I am just a blur
        A             Bm      F#m        D
Through the waves, as I scuba dive below the harbor


Interlude : D - A - E
            D - A - E
            D - A - E - F#m
            D - A - E


    D     A     E
The airway
              D        A     E
You and I in the airway
          D        A     E
Aloft in the airway
    F#m     D        A     E
In love in the airway

D     A     E
I can see
                   D       A           E
You above with the ocean around me
           D    A     E
If I could only stay
    F#m       D      A     E
Overhead in the airway
    D     A       E
You sail through
                      D      A           E
Endless sky with the evening around you
             D      A      E
When I'm out on the bay
        F#m      D      A    E
You're aloft in the airway
