[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?

From a-board a Curtiss Jenny, oh, you see things different-ly
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
[Chorus]

Fly, fly to the western sky

Where the fog bank shifts and the danger lies

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

Fly, fly to the western sky
