[Verse 1]
            G         Em
I know what you mean,
                 D
When you want to run to meet the world,
           G        Em           D
Intentions may not ... carry you far.

[Chorus]
                 G   Em
Small planes are here
               D
But they never leave my room at all,
                   G       Em
They don't make it through,
                   D         G   Em   D
They don't make it out.

[Verse 2]
          G       Em           D
I want to be like ... Sister Veronica whose life,
           G             Em          D
Whose life connects with ... so many lives.

[Chorus]
                     G    Em
And small planes are here
               D
But they never leave my room at all.
                   G       Em
They don't make it through,
                    D
They don't make it out.

[Verse 3]
            G  Em
My words to him
            D
They didn't touch him, not at all.
            G         Em               D
And I never can say ... what I mean to say.
                 G   Em
Small planes are here
               D
But they never leave my room at all.
                   G       Em
They don't make it through,
                   D
They don't make it out.

[Outro]
                     G
Twenty-five miles or thousands of miles,
Em                 D
When am I going to leave here?
                     G
Twenty-five miles or thousands of miles,
Em                 D
When am I going to get there?
                     Gmaj7
Twenty-five miles or thousands of miles,
Em                D
Who am I going to help there?
                     Gmaj7
Twenty-five miles or thousands of miles,
Em                 D          G  Em
When am I going to get there?
