Capo: 5th fret
[Intro]
C Cadd4 C C
C F C C
[Verse 1]
C Cadd4 C C
Make amends, tell your childhood friend they were something to you
C Cadd4 C C
Cos it gets dark, And when it’s so dark you gonna wish for a light or two
C Cadd4 C C
No we don’t TALK like we used to do in the meadows of our youth
C Cadd4 C C7
But you’re a PART of the last good, Truth ‘fore this yellow took my tooth
[Chorus 1]
F C
Time like a howlin’ jet plane takin’ off for good
D7 D F C/E F/G F/E
I’m but a passenger I never said I understood
C Cadd4 C F
What good does the flyin’ do, what good?
[Verse 2]
C Cadd4 C C
Here I am standing at the edge of this wooden pier
C Cadd4 C C
And through this fog at the Waterfront docks see the ship sails disappear
C Cadd4 C C
Yes it is GONE to another shore where they sky’s shiny, blue and clear
C Cadd4 C C7
But is it WRONG to expect return at the end of a troubled year?
[Chorus 2]
F C
Time like a smokey steam boat takin’ off for good
D7 D F C/E F/G F/E
I’m but a passenger I never said I understood
C Cadd4 C F
What good does the sailin’ do, what good? what good? what good?
C Cadd4 C C
What good does the flyin’ do, what good?
[Verse 3]
C Cadd4 C C
Rocky road, must I pay your toll every time I ride?
C Cadd4 C C
Cos all your street lights lead me somewhere deep neath the county line
C Cadd4 C C
And the SONG on the radio well it’s cuttin’ in and out
C Cadd4 C C7
And how LONG till my engine blows, till my vessel’s breaking down
[Chorus 3]
F C
Time like a racin’ speed car takin’ off for good
D7 D F C/E F/G F/E
I’m but a passenger I never said I understood
C Cadd4 C F
What good does the drivin’ do, what good? what good? what good?
C Cadd4 C F
What good does the sailin’ do, what good? what good? what good?
C Cadd4 C C
What good does the flyin’ dooooo, ah?
