Verse 1:
B          A6                G 
   The ni__ight doesn't like it 
                                  B 
Looks just like your face on the moon to me 
Bm7/A           G                           B 
   And I won't let you do what you want to do

You're laughing

I won't let you   do it 


Verse 2:
B             A6                       G 
   If you go__o, I'll let the law kno__ow 
                                   B 
And they'll head you off when you touch the ground 
Bm7/A                       G 
   Ooh, please, don't go through with this 
                  B 
I don't like the sound of it 
      F#m/A     G 
It's funny how, even now 
        F#m 
You're miles away
 


E7M(6)   E7M(6)  E7M(6) 
I won't let you   do it

I won't let you   do it 
E7M(6)   E7M(6)  E7M(6) 
I won't let you   go 
   E7M(6)  E7M(6) 
Through   with it 


Pre-Chorus
  G        Bm7/A    B 
(Meet them over at Dover 
G          Bm7/A     B 
I'll just pilot the motor 
 G        Bm7/A     B 
Take them over the water 


G  A6                B 
      With a hired plane 
        A6        G 
And no names mentioned 
               A6 
Tonight's the night of the flight 
   B 
Before you know 
A6                  B       Bm7/A  G     A6 
I'll be over the water like   a  swallow 
                B 
There's no risk 
                A6            G 
I'll whisk them up in no moonlight 
                      A6 
And though pigs can fly 
               B             A6 
They'll never find me posing as the night 
             B        Bm7/A    G       A6 
And I'm home   before     the morning) 


Verse 3:
B            A6                 G 
   In Malta__a, catch a swallo__ow 
                            B 
For all of the guilty - to let them free 
Bm7/A           G 
Wings fill the window 
              B 
And they beat   and bleed 
      F#m/A              G 
They hold the sky on the other side 
    F#m 
Of borderlines 


E7M(6)   E7M(6)  E7M(6) 
I won't let you   do it 
E7M(6)   E7M(6)  E7M(6) 
I won't let you   do it 
E7M(6)   E7M(6)  E7M(6) 
I won't let you   go 
   E7M(6)  E7M(6) 
Through   with it

  A6 
(Give me a break! 
B 
Ooh, let me fly! 
         A6                       G 
Give me something to show for my miserable life! 
 A6 
Something to take! 
            B                 A6 
Would you break even my wings   like a swallow?) 


 B       Bm7/A  G 
Let me, let me go
