Special Patrol - Lights on a Plane [From 'The Stranger's Dozen' - 2009]
I'm not entirely sure of the lyrics. They aren't included in the album booklet so I 
my best to work them out by ear. I apologise if they're wrong - please comment if they are 
I'll edit the lyrics.
To match the recording, I think it needs a capo on the 4th fret.
Thanks again and happy playing

CTime keeps Amticking like dripping, broken Gtap
CAnd I've beAmen trying too hard but the proGblems that
I've been Fso scared of Cchange
I'm up and Fdown like a boat on a Cwave
And I've got Gnothing left to say
And Fyou've Gbeen
CFading C/Baway like the Amlights of a plane
FAnd I've Gbeen
CChasing the C/Bdarkness Amaway every day
FAnd it's Gall
A Cmess and I C/Bguess that you Amleft quite a stain
FCause I still Gwant you just the same
[Whistle solo]
I'm on the dark side of the rain
You're on the right side of my brain
I miss you every day
And you've been
Fading away like the lights of a plane
And I've been chasing the darkness away every day
And it's all a mess and I guess that you left quite a stain
Cause I still want you just the same
[Cello solo]
And you've been
Fading away like the lights of a plane
And I've been chasing the darkness away every day
And it's all a mess and I guess that you left quite a stain
Cause I still want you just the same
