I Dont Wanna Die In An Air Disaster

 G  D  Em (2x)

[Verse 1]

      G      D         Em       G        D       Em
The engines spit out fire, I'm pushed back in my chair,
          G       D      Em           D          D
the pressure gives me thrills as we climb in the air.
        G      D         Em       G        D       Em
And I love to watch the clouds and the mountains and the sky,
 G       D      Em           D          D
swish around a cocktail the stewardess brings by.

[Chorus]

Em                 D
Lord, this is the life for me,
Em                         D
Lord, oh Lord, this is the life for me,
      C      G      D        G     D     Em
but I don't wanna die in an air disaster,
    C     G    D        Em
I don't wanna die on a plane.

[Verse 2]

            G      D         Em                  G        D       Em
Well, I fishtail through the lanes, and I make my tires squeal
  G       D      Em        D          D
power at my feet and glory at the wheel.
        G      D         Em           G        D          Em
And I wind the windows down, let the wind blow through my hair,
 G       D      Em           D          D
God knows where I'm going, but me, I don't care.

[Chorus]

Em                         D
Lord, this is the life for me,
Em                         D
Lord, oh Lord, this is the life for me,
     C      G      D        G     D     Em
but I don't wanna die in a freeway pile-up,
   C       G    D        Em
I don't wanna die on the road

[Verse 3]

            G      D         Em                G        D       Em
Well, I'm young and I'm pretty,   and I wanna stay that way,
 G       D      Em        D          D
wanna be desirable until my dying day.
     G        D         Em       G        D      Em
I don't wanna be bed ridden, an old and bitter sage,
G          D      Em           D          D
have the nurses saying I'm young for my age.
         C     D     G
("He's young for his age.")

[Chorus]

Em                         D
Oh Lord, don't let me go that way,
Em                         D
Lord, oh Lord, don't let me go that way.
    C      G      D        G     D     Em
No, don't make me go like a fading chorus,
  C     G    D        Em
don't make me fade like a song.

[Outro]

Em             D
Lord, have mercy on your son,
Em                             D
Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord, have mercy on me,
          C      G    D        G    D   Em
'cause I don't wanna die in an air disaster,
       C      G    D        G    D   Em
and I don't wanna die in a freeway pile-up,
       C      G    D        G    D   Em
and I don't wanna go like a fading chorus,
       C      G    D       G    D   Em
and I don't wanna die for no good reason,
       C      G    D      Em
and I just wanna go on and on.
