Verse 1:
 D
Enter Airship Valentine
Dmaj7
The stationmaster's son
Gm                      Bb     A
Who was never very capable of trying
D                       Dmaj7
Taken for a tommy fool or someone to ignore
        Em          G          A
He put all his aspirations into flying
A   G  A   D  Bb       A   A7
But did he ever guess he might
D       Bb     F
Get to fly the Knife?

Bridge:
     Db                 Ab
For every year they told the tale
     Bbm                F
An airship that could never fail
        Gb              Db
The sharpest blade to ever sail
    Db                  Fm
To float against their current lives
         Bbm                   F
And feed their dreams and fill their skies
    Gb                      Db
A flight to rise above the knives


Chorus:
Ebmaj7      Adim7      Bb
Fly to the moon and go back in time
Eb      Adim7          Bb     Dm
Sit on the wave of a cloud
Gm                      Dm
A message to our Sir Valentine
        Cm              Gm  Dm
From somewhere up above
Eb              Gm   Cm
The sum of our lives
Eb7                             Bbm
Could this be the flight of the Knife?

Bbm Fm  x2
Bbm Ebmaj7 Eb

D               C  G
Knife, huh, Knife
D               G
Knife, huh, Knife


Verse 2:
D                             Dmaj7
So he made his way into a city made of fire trees
Gm                      Bb         A
Seeking evidence of supernatural soaring
D                               Dmaj7
Led beyond the pale into an oceanic brain
        Em                G            A
Where a purple rain of rockets took to pouring
A   G  A   D         Bb        A   A7
And on the edge of sound and sight
D       Bb     F
Overtook the Knife

F C Ab Bb C

Bridge:
    Db                Ab
Sleepy summer's afternoon
         Bbm            F
The sun got stuck behind the moon
    Gb                      Db
A hush fell down before the boom
    Db                  Fm
And soaring from their left to right
         Bbm            F
A blazing trail of roaring light
    Gb                      Db
Our Airship and his flying Knife


Chorus:
Ebmaj7      Adim7      Bb
Diving and dancing between the breeze
Eb      Adim7          Bb     Dm
Climbing a ladder of cloud
Gm                      Dm
No one below him could believe
       Cm       Gm  Dm
That one so disavowed
Eb              Gm   Cm
Could turn things to rights
Eb7                             Bbm
And bring home the flight of the Knife

Bbm Eb  x2


Outro:
F#m                     Db
And so he flew into the blue
F#m                             Bb
Oh Airship what's become of you?
Ebm
You really made the grade
F#m                             Db
You're going to join the ranks today
     F7                 F
So go and take your place

Bbm             Fm
