Dm                   Am
 I take my notebook and tear the pages out
C                G
To write down my thoughts in a message
Dm         Am         C G
 I encrypt  every line
Dm                 Am
As the people pass on the street below
C                 G
I smooth out and fold up the edges
Dm               Am             C G
Then hold them up against the sky

       D      A
And I let 'em go
                              E
Hope you'll find each word I wrote
                                F
On these paper planes scattered in the air
       C                      G                  Am
Oh, I send them off 'cause I know you're out there

Dm             Am
 I picture you discovering
C                  G
 Each note all the others step over
Dm                     Am                  C G
'Cause you're the kind  who finds the clues
Dm                  Am
You'll know every one was meant for you
C                  G
'Cause you've got the secret decoder
Dm        Am             C  G
They'll lead you to me soon

       D      A
So I let 'em go
                              E
Hope you'll find each word I wrote
                                F
On these paper planes scattered in the air
       C                      G                  Am
Oh, I send them off 'cause I know you're out there

Dm       Am
I know you'll see
     C
The heart beneath
      G
Each line you read

       D      A
So I let 'em go
                              E
Hope you'll find each word I wrote
                                F
On these paper planes scattered in the air
       C                      G                  Am
Oh, I send them off 'cause I know you're out there
