[Verse]

  A                               D              A
I always was the reckless kind, I do what I must do
  Em                              D   C
I put the danger out of mind, and go  on
  A                                   D               A
I joined the barnstorm fliers back in Nineteen Twenty-Two
      Em                               D    C
And a-bove those dusty farms, we put a show on


[Chorus]

D               G       D
Fly, fly to the western sky
          A                       D      A
Where the fog bank shifts and the danger lies
D                  G     D
Why, why would you never learn
         Em                       A
That you won't come back from the Immelman Turn?

D               G       D
Fly, fly to the red sun-rise
          A                       D      A
Where the cloud-banks shift under copper skies
D                  G     D
Why, why would you never learn
         Em                       A
That you won't come back from the Immelman Turn?

        Em                                 D     C
And the farm boys wait for joyrides in the clear-ing
  A                               D               A
I went out walking on the wing in Nineteen Twenty-Three
      Em                                 D     C
And a-bove the engine noise I heard them cheer-ing

       A                                  D                A
The frost was on your aieleron's, and the wind was in your hair
         Em                            D     C
When you went into the climb I saw you laugh-ing
         A                                        D                A
When the engine stalls and you start to spin, you won't get out of there
      Em                                D    C
And a hush comes on the crowd as you go fall-ing


[Chorus]

D               G       D
Fly, fly to the western sky
          A                       D      A
Where the fog bank shifts and the danger lies
