Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D]

[Verse 1]
I don't want to hear a [G]love song
[Em]I got on this airp[C]lane just to fly[G]
And I [D]know there's life below me
But all that it can show me
Is the [G]prairie and the [D]sky

[Verse 2]
And I don't want to hear a [G]sad story
[Em]Full of hear[C]tbreak and d[G]esire
The last [D]time I felt like this
I was in the wilder[C]ness
and the [G]canyon was on fire

[Pre-chorus 1]
And [Em]I stood on the mou[A]ntain
[C]In the night and I watched it bur[G]n
I watched it [D]burn, I watched it [G]burn

[Chorus 1]
I would rock [C]my soul
in the bosom of [G]Abraham
I would hold [D]my life
in his saving [G]grace
I would walk [C]all the way
from boulder to [G]Birmingham
If I thought I could [D]see,
I could [G]see your [D]face

[Verse 3]
Well you really got me [G]this time
And the [Em]hardest part is [C]knowing [G]I'll survive
I have come to [D]listen for the sound
Of the trucks as they move [C]down
Out on [G]ninety five

[Pre-chorus 2]
And pre[Em]tend that it's the [A]ocean
[C]Coming down to wash me cle[G]an,
to wash me [D]clean
Baby do you know what I [G]mean

[Chorus 2]
I would rock [C]my soul
in the bosom of [G]Abraham
I would hold [D]my life
in his saving [G]grace
I would walk [C]all the way
from boulder to [G]Birmingham
If i thought I could [D]see,
I could [G]see your face
If I thought I could [D]see,
I could [G]see your face
[D][G]
