C                                                 Dm
Electricity roared but you looked so bored on the line
        Em                                                   Dm
Nobody knows how it felt to see that cannonball melt in your mind
C                                           Dm
Calling all cars, one less dog behind bars, one less man in pain
   Em                                            Dm
It hurts to see you go but darling don't you know we're so glad you came

[Chorus]
    F                             C
And you'll stay gone a long, long time
       G                         F
Day by day you'll fly across our minds
       Em                       F
Only a fool would want to stick around
                   C
When you're heaven bound

[Verse 2]
C                                                 Dm
Disconnect the phone, heart from bone, voice from mind
Em                                                   Dm
So sad and blue, how'd you do, of course you did just fine
C                                           Dm
So grab a tail on this big gray whale and do your best to stay brave
Em                                            Dm
In that final hour he's just a beautiful flower that couldn't be saved

[Chorus]
    F                             C
And you'll stay gone a long, long time
       G                         F
Day by day you'll fly across our minds
       Em                       F
Only a fool would want to stick around
                   C
When you're heaven bound

[Bridge]
C Dm Em Dm

[Chorus]
    F                             C
And you'll stay gone a long, long time
       G                         F
Day by day you'll fly across our minds
       Em                       F
Only a fool would want to stick around
                   C
When you're heaven bound, heaven bound
