Вступление
[Verse]
Dbsus4/Ab Dbsus4/Gb Db
My parents must have thought they had a crazy kid
Dbsus4/Gb Db Ab
'Cause I was one of those kids who always knew what I wanted
Dbsus4/Gb
They took me down to the airport to see all the planes departing
Db/F
Watching them fly something inside of me was starting
Dbsus4/Gb Db/Ab Ab
I was eight when I told them that I'd be a pilot
[Pre-Chorus]
Dbsus4/Gb
But I was too young and too short
Dbsus4/Gb
And there were no female captains
Db/F Db/F
And my dad said, "be patient" he said, "just see what happens"
Dbsus4
But I took my first lesson came down from the sky
Ab
And told my father I'd fly for the rest of my life
Dbsus4/Gb
And I got my first job flying for a mortician
Db/F
In a tiny bonanza, just a corpse and me
Dsus4/Gb
Five dollars an hour for flying dead bodies
Db/F Db Ab
I had to climb over their faces just to get to my seat
Gb Db/F
And suddenly the wheels lift off
Dbsus4/Gb
The ground is falling backwards
Db/F Ab
I am suddenly alive
[Chorus]
Gb/Bb Ab
Suddenly I'm in the cockpit
Gb Dbsus4/Bb
Suddenly everything's changed
Gb/Bb Ab
Suddenly I'm not too young or too short
Gb Dsus4/Bb
And the passengers in the back don't complain
Gb/Bb Ab
Suddenly I'm flying company charters
Gb Dbsus4/Bb
Suddenly everything's high
Gb/Bb Ab Db
Suddenly there's nothing in between me and the sky
[Verse]
Dbsus4/Gb Db
American Airlines had the prettiest planes
Dbsus4/Gb
So I applied as a flight engineer
Db/Ab Ab
But the World War II pilots, they all complained
[Pre-Chorus]
Dbsus4/Gb
They said, "girls shouldn't be in the cockpit"
Dbsus4/Gb Db Ab
"Hey lady, hey baby, hey! Why don't you grab us a drink?"
Dbsus4/Gb
And the flight attendants weren't my friends back then
Db Ab
And they said, "Are you better than us, do you think?"
Dbsus4/Gb
But I kept getting hired
Db/F Ab
And the World War II crew, they retired
Gb Dbsus4/Gb Db/F Gb Ab
And the girls all thought much higher of me
Ab Gb Ab
1986 the first female American captain in history
[Chorus]
Gb/Bb Ab
Suddenly I'm in the cockpit
Gb Dbsus4/Bb
Suddenly I've got my wings
Gb/Bb Ab
Suddenly all of those pilots protested me
Gb Dbsus4/Bb
Well, they can get their own drinks
Gb/Bb Ab
Suddenly there's no one saying, "Stay grounded"
Gb Dbsus4/Bb
Looking down passing them by
Gb/Bb Ab Db
Suddenly there's nothing in between me and the sky
Gb/Bb Ab
Suddenly I've got an all female crew
Gb Ab
The news talked, it made headlines across the world
Gb/Bb Ab
Suddenly it stopped
Dbsus4/Gb Ab
No one saying, "You can't" or "You won't"
Dbsus4/Bb Ab
Or "You know you're not anything 'cause you're a girl"
[Verse]
Dbsus4/Gb Ab
Suddenly I'm getting married
Dbsus4/Gb Ab
And we're putting pins on the map where we've flown
Dbsus4/Gb Ab
Suddenly I am a mother
Gb Ab
And suddenly shocked at how much they've grown
[Pre-Chorus]
Dbsus4/Gb Ab
Suddenly I'm wondering how my parents would feel
Gbsus4/Gb Ab
Seeing me teaching men to be pilots
Dbsus4/Gb Ab Dbsus4
'Cause suddenly I am a senior instructor and somehow I'm 51
Gb/Bb Ab
Suddenly I'm flying Paris to Dallas
Gb Dbsus4/Bb
Across The Atlantic and feeling calm
Dbsus4/Gb Ab
When suddenly someone on air to air traffic says
Dbsus4/Gb Ab
"At 8:46 there's been a terrorist action"
Gb Db/Gb Dbsus2
And the one thing I loved more than anything was used as the bomb
[Outro]
Dbsus4/Ab
Suddenly I'm in a hotel
Dbsus4/Gb Gb/Bb
Suddenly something has died
Dbsus4/Ab Db/Gb N.C. Gb/Bb Gb Dbsus2 Db
Suddenly there's something in between me and the sky
