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
