Fylingdale Flyer 

Capo 1 fret 

no chords 
Through clear skies tracking lightly from far down the line 
                               A 
No fanfare, just a blip on the screen 
Em D           G      C            A      D       C 
No quick conclusions now --- everything will be fine 
  Em    D     G              C          A 
Short-circuit glitsch and not what it seems 

Em      D   Em                       D     G   D 
Fylingdale Flyer --- you're only half way there 
G       D       Em                               D          A(sus4) A 
Green screen liar --- for a second or so we were running scared 

Em D           G      C            A      D       C 
On late shift, feeling drowsy eyes glued to the display 
Em    D     G       C               A 
Dead cert alert, lit match to the straw 
Em D           G          C            A      D       C 
One last quick game of bowls --- we can still win the day 
Em    D       G       C               A 
Fail-safe; forget the things that you saw 

Em      D   Em                       D     G   D 
Fylingdale Flyer --- you're only half way there 
G       D       Em                               D          A(sus4) A 
Green screen liar --- for a second or so we were running scared 
  

same 
They checked the systems through and they read A-o.k. 
Some tiny fuse has probably blown 
Sit back; relax and soon it will just go away 
Keep your hands off that red telephone
