Flashlight Brown
This Bird
[F]Taxi to the runway as th[G]e evening turns to night
It's se[E]veral minutes past the chance[F] to dodge this dire flight
The engines both look ancient and the wings are swathed in rust
I should have stayed at home or took the midnight shuttle bus.
When the hell's the steward going to bring around a drink?
This lack of ammunition gives me too much time to think
I'll down the airline champagne and I'll juice up on some gin
I'll be too blind to worry when the fuselage caves in.
[F]And now I[G] know that I[Am]'m going to se[Ab]em extreme
[F]This bird's [G]going [C]down.
Don't want to cry or to have to make a scene
This bird's going down.
The beast is leaping up and down I think I'm going to crack
Like Terminator my insipid dinner's coming back
The further out we go the mortal danger only grows
I've got to stop myself from watching air disaster shows.
[A]In to swamp in to a bridge into the ocean wher[D]e the fishies meet, what a tasty treat.
[G]With pilot error or the weather or mechanics [C]leaving che[A]cklists incomplete.
Into a mountain or a forest or a school yard where the kids all play, what a tragic day
A fundamentalist with suitcase full of bombs prepared to blow this flight away.
[F]And now I[G] know that I[Am]'m going to se[Ab]em extreme
[F]This bird's[G] going[Am] down.
[F]This bird's[G] going[Am] down.
[F]This bird's [G]going[Ab][Bb][C]
