Ruth B. - Paper Airplanes

(from “A Jazzman’s Blues” soundtrack)

[Verse 1]

GM7 Bm7
You are the song that I long to hear once more
CM7 G
You are the light that I keep looking for
GM7 Bm Bm7
Roses are blue if it isn’t me and you
CM7 G
I gotta see, see this thing through

[Chorus]

GM7 Bm
And I’ll spend my lifetime
Bm7 CM7
Sending paper airplanes to the moon
G
Praying they get to you
GM7 Bm
And I’ll spend the rest of my days
Bm7 CM7
Lost in this craze for you
G
Sending paper airplanes to the moon

[Verse 2]

GM7 Bm Bm7
Love so divine, all our memories intertwined
CM7 G
I found the truth in your honey eyes
G
And even though it’s been a while
Bm7
I still think about your smile
Bm7
Every night before I fall asleep
CM7
I find you in my dreams
G
Somewhere in the trees

[Chorus]

GM7
And I’ll spend my lifetime
Bm CM7
Sending paper airplanes to the moon
G
Praying they get to you
GM7 Bm
And I’ll spend the rest of my days
CM7
Lost in this craze for you
G
Sending paper airplanes to the moon

[Bridge]

GM7 Bm
And if the world stops spinning
Bm7
Even then I’ll be singing
CM7 G
Of you, of you
GM7
And when my heart stops beating
Bm7
Even then I’ll be dreaming
CM7 GM7
Of you, of you
GM7
And if the birds stop singing
GM7
And the rain stops falling
Bm7
And the sun won’t shine on you
CM7
Even then I won’t be through
G GM7
Through with loving you

[Chorus]

GM7
And I’ll spend my lifetime
Bm7 CM7
Sending paper airplanes to the moon
G
Praying they get to you
GM7
And I’ll spend the rest of my days
Bm CM7
Lost in this craze for you
G CM7
Sending paper airplanes to the moon

[Outro]

G CM7
Sending paper airplanes to the moon, moon
Cm G
Sending paper airplanes to the moon
