And with [G]the grace of God
I will [D]win my place in heav[G]en

[Verse 2]
[G]Mr. Boeing can you hear me now?
Way up there in [C]Seattle
You better sit your big self [G]down
'Cause I'm [D]about to make

Get [G]busy with your peppy team
And your compass and pro[C]tractor
'Cause I'm sent here to [G]contract ya
To con[D]struct this winged [G]thing

We're [G]talking 'bout an aquaplane
With its [Gm]floats made out of [C]liners
And a hold like [G]Carolina
For the [D]load it must contain

[Verse 6]
Don't [G]tell me that it can't be done
'Cause we're living in the [C]eighties
Boy we will not me [G]mateys
Unless [D]we do this winged [G]thing
I [Gm]want to

[G]Information I have received
From let's [Gm]say h[G]igher [Gm]sourc[C]es
That leads me to be[G]lieve
That heavy [D]weather is around the bend

But with the aid of our construc[G]tion
We'll sur[D]vive and thrive [G]again

I want to [A]take the ape and the kangaroo
From out the wild and out of the zoo
I'm gonna have to take extra
cattle and swine
'Cause the beasts on each
other do love to dine
Every fish, fowl, thing that howl
Will all be kicking up a [C]hell of a row

[Verse 12]
When I [G]build a jumbo ark
A stretch 747
[Em]And with the g[G]race of God
I will [D]win my place

And with the [G]grace of God
I will [D]win my place in heav[G]en
And with the grace of God
