[Intro]
D

[Verse 1]
D                    G               DRotors spin as she's running for the bell
          A                              DShe was a fearless pilot with a heart of gold
G                                 D I never really knew her all that well
        A                                  DShe had one more flight and she was headed home

[Verse 2]
D                     G                   DSprinting hard 'cause there were lives to save
         A                               DHe was a young Marine with an iron cross tattoo
G                                      D A little cocky, righteous, strong and brave
       A                 DThe co-pilot, Morphine 1-2

[Chorus]
       G                              DAnd my head knows, but my heart can't see
         A                            DAnd it's not like it should have been me
      G                                DBut I wish that I'd been there on that day
     A                   DEven now, I'd take their place

[Verse 3]
D           G                DSeven souls took off on that flight
         A                                 DIt was a desert blood drop in the light of day
G                                          D A few more seconds could have saved their lives
        A                           DBut the story wasn't gonna end that way

[Chorus]
       G                              DAnd my head knows, but my heart can't see
         A                            DAnd it's not like it should have been me
      G                                  DBut I wish that I had been there on that day
     A                   DEven now, I'd take their place

[Verse 4]
D             G             DSouthern star shine down on me now
A                                DLights that burn in everything I do
G                           D Till we meet again someday somehow
       A              DSemper fi, Morphine 1-2

[Chorus]
       G                              DAnd my head knows, but my heart can't see
         A                            DAnd it's not like it should have been me
        G                                DStill I wish that I'd been there on that day
     A                   DEven now, I'd take their place
