TIME TO FLY – by Patrick Spencer

D
I, wish that December was July
A F#7 Bm
And I wish you and I could find the time to go away
G
…To someplace

D
Cheap, where we can meet the locals
A
You should chose a fruit bowl for your dad,
F#7 Bm G
I will pay, it’s his place.


G A
And all of the ladies will say,
Bm A G
They’ve got something we’d like
G A
You scan the sand for the camouflage pants
Bm A G (4 bars)
They know to watch out for our kind.

G A D F#7
We won’t survive and it feels like a fine time to fly.
Bm G D F#7 Bm G
It feels like a fine time to fly.
D F#7 Bm G
D F#7 Bm G (4 bars)


D
If we decide, the purchase a last minute flight,
A F#7 Bm
We’ll stay up in Denver for most of the night
D A F#7 Bm G
Surrounded by strangers and dying to fly

D
When we arrive, the view to the ocean is nice
F#7 Bm G
It helps us forget about our winter lives
D F#7 Bm G
Those are the bottoms you know that I like
D F#7 Bm G
All the boys like to stare but I really don’t mind
D F#7 Bm G
the boys like to stare but I really don’t mind
D F#7 Bm G (4 bars)
And the boys like to stare but I really don’t mind


G A
And all of the ladies will say,
Bm A G
They’ve got something we’d like
G A
Keep the car running, I don’t see the bus coming
Bm A F#7 Bm G
And it might not make it to our plane on time

G A G A
We’re still cold, winter’s long gotten old
G A Bm
Sitting here on the road, so goodbye.
G A G A
We’re still cold, winter’s long gotten old
G A
Sitting here on the road so,
D A Bm
So long, adios and goodbye.
G A D F#7
We won’t survive and it feels like a fine time to fly
Bm G D F#7 Bm G (repeat)
It feels like a fine time to fly.
