[Verse 1]
  D
I left on a jetplane for faraway lands
D
My expectations are much less than grand
           F#m                       G
'Cause I'm sitting here next to this overdressed man
      D                     G
And I only want you next to me

         D
Well you know I love flying, especially at night
      D
And I asked for the window, but I got the isle
        F#m                    G
And I'm grumbling next to this overdressed guy
      D                     A
And I only want you next to me
      G         A           D D G G
Yes I only want you next to me

[Verse 2]
         D
Now this highroad I've taken, this distance that kills
         D
Would be easier traveled if not for the guilt
          F#m                      G
'Cause it ain't circumstances that drove us to this
     D                   G
No I chose to be flying away

         D
But that really don't matter that much I suppose
   D
In light of the distance between us that grows
           F#m                           G
'Cause I'm here and you're there now and all that I know
     D                        A
Is I don't want to be on this plane
     G             A          D     D G G
No I don't want to be on this plane

[Verse 3]
          D
Now these clouds appear solid, but the plane barrels through
   D
An illusion of substance without any truth
        F#m                         G
So I'll rest on your wings Lord and savor the view
      D                        G
And I won't let my fear in the way

         D
And I'll try to consider it joy while I'm here
         D
'Cause I read that I'm blessed if I persevere
    F#m                       G
God fashions a crown from the pain and the tears
       D                     A
And he carries us all of the way
           G           A         D   D G G
Oh, yes he carries me all of the way

[Verse 4]
        D
Now the thing about airplanes I notice this time
       D
Is you can't look ahead and you can't look behind
            F#m                        G
But you can see where you are when you look out the side
        D                   G
You can try to recover some peace

          D
And these thundering mountains all cottony white
    D
The works of my maker I'm flying beside
      F#m                        G
But I can't hardly see past this overdressed guy
    D                       A
Oh, I only want you next to me
           G         A           D D G G
So Jamie I only want you next to me
