G D Ebdim

Oh the open aired passenger

Em D C

His chin moved up to the left

G D Ebdim

Oh the open aired passenger

Em D C

His brain fell out of his head

G Em

And his wife in pink

D C

What did she think

G Em D

As she held his remainder in her hand?

G Em D C

Scrambling over the seat

G Em D

For the largest pieces of his skull

C D

Which he surely can't afford to lose

G D Ebdim

Oh the captain of one, two, three

Em D C

A plane he no longer could steer

G D Ebdim

Oh the captain of one, two, three

Em D C

Before the mountains appeared

G Em

The flight control

D C

What did they know?

G Em D

As their charts just kept right on hovering

G Em

And the girl on board

D C

What did she know?

G Em D

As she heard her mother whispering,

C D

"Do not be afraid. We'll be alright."

G D Ebdim

And the barber of New Orleans

Em D C

The day the raining began

G D Ebdim

Oh the barber of New Orleans

Em D C

When the levy gave in

G Em D C

No saints came marching out

G Em D

No booming voices from above

G Em D C

But he had nary a doubt

G Em D

For he oh so often was told of love

C D Em

By the good book that guided his life

And they all said,

C D

"Do not be afraid. We'll be alright."

C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7 C
