Fly Over States — Jason Aldean
Chords and lyrics for Fly Over States by Jason Aldean (key of G).
Intro
[G]
Verse
A couple [G]guys in first class on a flight
From new York to Los [Bm]Angeles
[Bm]Kinda making small talk killing time
Flirting with the flight attendants[C]
30,000 feet above, could be [Am]Oklahoma
Just a [G]bunch of square cornfields and wheat farms
Man, it all looks the [Bm]same
[Bm]Miles and miles of back roads and highways
Connecting little towns with unknown [C]names
Who'd [Am]want to live down there in the middle of [D]nowhere
Chorus
They've never [Em]drove through [C]Indiana
Met the men who [G]plowed that earth
Planted that seed, [D]busted his ass for you and [Bm]me
Or caught a [Em]harvest moon in [C]Kansas
They'd understand [D]why God made those fly [C]over states
Verse
[G] I bet that mile long Santa Fe freight train engineer's seen it [Bm]all
[Bm]Just like that flatbed cowboy stacking US steel on a 3-day [C]haul
[C]Road and rails under their [Am]feet
[D] Yeah, that sounds like a first class seat
Chorus
On the [Em]plains of [C]Oklahoma
Where the [G]windshield sunset in your eyes
Like a [D]watercolor painted sky[Bm]
You'd think [Em]heaven's doors have [C]opened
You'll understand [D]why God made
Those fly [C]over states
Solo
[Em] [C] [G] [D] [Bm]
Verse
Take a [E]ride across the [C]badlands
[G]Feel that freedom on your face
[D]Breathe in all that open [Bm]space
Meet a [Em]girl from [C]Amarillo
You'll [D]understand why God made
Why you'd [C]want to plant your stakes
In those fly[G] [D]over states
Outro
[Em] [C] [G] [D] [Bm]
