S y d n e y   F r o m   A   747
Have you Gever seen Sydney from a 747 at night, yea-Emah
CSydney shines Gsuch a beautiful Dlight
And GI can see Bondi through the window way off to the right, yea-Emah
And a Gcurling wave on a Ddistant break and the Gsleeping city just aCbout to wake  
Have you Gever seen Sydney from a D747 at Gnight
GNow the red roof's are catchin' the first rays of the morning sun, yea-Emah
My Ceyes are full of Gsand from my midnight Drun
And the GCaptain says belt up now, we'll be touchin' down in ten, yea-Emah
So I Gpress my seat and I Dstraighten up, I Gfold my tray and I Cstash my cup
As the Gred roof's are catchin' the first Drays of the morning Gsun
GHave you ever fallen for a girl with different coloured eyes, yea-Emah
And Csent her letters Gwith one or two Dlies
Have you Gever longed to see the sun fall where it used to rise, Emyeah
And Gquit your job Don the spot, Gbought that ticket, yeah then Cspent the lot
Have you Gever fallen for a Dgirl with different coloured Geyes
GHave you ever seen Sydney from a 747 at Emnight             x 3
CMe, I've never seen DDallas from a DC-G9
