From "The Spirit Moves"
Characteristic of many of his songs, Sean walks between the chords in a flatpicking pattern - have fun with it
Capo 3
[Intro]
G Em G Em
GYou and I've got our backs against the wall
EmIf we stay down, we won't have far to fall
GBut it's no fun relying on defenses
EmWe get our kicks swinging for the fence
And I said Cyes
I wanna fGly my airplane tonighCt
It's so hGard down here to unwiCnd
I ain't lGost, but you can't find meC G
When I said you're sEmtrange
CIt was a compliment you kGnow

Trying to lose these thoughts that bring me dGown
ForEmget the lessons we were taught
That have tamed us and pinned us to the grGound

GLife a dance between riding the bench
EmAnd waiting for your chance to sAmwing for the fEmence

I wanna fGly my airplane tonCight
It's so hGard down here to unwCind
I ain't lGost, cCome and find me
GWhen I said you're strange
CIt was a compliment you knGow
