G                        D7
Wings in the morning and license to fly

                           G
Straight to the portals of nevermore die

                       C
Nevermore pain in them old aching bones

D7                               G
Wings in the morning to carry us home


                            D7
My grandfather lived by the book all his life

                                  G
On rich bottomed land with twelve kids and a wife

                    C
He never saw TV nor rode a jet plane

       D7                               G
But he knew that heaven was holding his claim


G                        D7
Wings in the morning and license to fly

                           G
Straight to the portals of nevermore die

                       C
Nevermore pain in them old aching bones

D7                               G
Wings in the morning to carry us home


                               D7
The salt of the earth yet with faith in the Lord

                         G
They all got together in that one accord

                               C
And what could be greater than God's guarantee

        D7                        G
That we can have heaven for eternity


G                        D7

Nevermore pain in them old aching bones

D7                               G
Wings in the morning to carry us home


                         D7
Rocks in the road and we stumble and fall

                          G
Light's getting low so we don't see at all

                          C
But I promise you on that gettin' up day

D7                                 G
Wings in the morning and we'll fly away


G                        D7
