Boeing 737 chords by The Low Anthem

[Intro - C, D, G, Em, C, G, D, C]

VERSE 1
C
I was in the air when the towers came down
     G                  Em
In a bar on the 84th floor
C                  G
I bought Philippe Petit a round
    D                           C
And asked what his high wire was for
    C
He said, "I put one foot on the wire
G                       Em
One foot straight into heaven
C                              G
As the prophets entered boldly into the bar
       D       C                D        C
On the Boeing 737, Lord, on the Boeing 737"

CHORUS
C
Hey, little bird, would you be the one
G                   Em
To nest beneath my Gatling gun?
C
There's nothing left I call my own
G                         C
Come down and build me a home

VERSE 2
C
I was in a bar when they rigged the towers
G                      Em
Trying to leave all my sins
C                      G
The barmaid asked my order
     D                  C
And where my mind had been
C
I tried to recall the high wire
G                               Em
Philippe and his foot there in heaven
         C                       G
As the prophets entered boldly into the bar
        D       C                 D     C
On the Boeing 737, Lord, on the Boeing 737
