Fly Over States Jason Aldean
Standard Tuning
No capo
Begginning Part:
e ---7------ b -----8---- g -------7-- d ---------- X 5 a ---------- E ----------
VERSE:
G X 5
A couple [G]guys in first class on a flight
From new York to Los Ange[Bm]les,
Kinda making small talk killing time,
Flirting with the flight attendants[C],
30, 000 feet above, could be Oklahoma,
Just a [G]bunch of square cornfields and wheat farms,
Man it all looks the [Bm]same,
Miles and miles of back roads and highways,
Connecting little towns with funny na[C]mes,
Who'd want to live down there in the middle [D]
of nowhere,
CHORUS:
They've never [Em]drove through Indian[C]a,
Met the men who [G]plowed that earth,
Planted that seed, [D]busted his ass for you and me,
Or caught a [Em]harvest moon in K[C]ansas,
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 all
Just like that flatbed cowboy stacking US steel on a 3-day [Bm]haul
[C]Road and rails under their feet
[D] Yeah that sounds like a first class seat
CHORUS:
On the [Em]plains of Oklah[C]oma
Where the wind[G]shield sunset in your eyes
Like a [D]watercolor painted sky
You'd think [Em]heavens doors have o[C]pened
You'll understand [D]why god made
Those fly [C]over states
(solo)
Em, C, D, C X2
Take a [Em]ride across the b[C]adlands
[G]Feel that freedom on your face
[D]Breathe in all that open space
Meet a [Em]girl from Amari[C]llo
You'll understand [D]why god made
Why you'd want to [C]plant your stakes
In those fly [G]over states
