G                        D7 
Wings in the morning and license to fly 

                           G 
Straight to the portals of nevermore die 

                       C 
Nevermore pain in them old aching bones 

D7                               G 
Wings in the morning to carry us home 


                            D7 
My grandfather lived by the book all his life 

                                  G 
On rich bottomed land with twelve kids and a wife 

                    C 
He never saw TV nor rode a jet plane 

       D7                               G 
But he knew that heaven was holding his claim

                       C 
Nevermore pain in them old aching bones 

D7                               G 
Wings in the morning to carry us home 


                               D7 
The salt of the earth yet with faith in the Lord 

                         G 
They all got together in that one accord 

                               C 
And what could be greater than God's guarantee 

        D7                        G 
That we can have heaven for eternity

Nevermore pain in them old aching bones 

D7                               G 
Wings in the morning to carry us home 


                         D7 
Rocks in the road and we stumble and fall 

                          G 
Light's getting low so we don't see at all 

                          C 
But I promise you on that gettin' up day 

D7                                 G 
Wings in the morning and we'll fly away
