  A                          D                     A 
I am afraid of bridges, sometimes I have to turn around  
                                   D               A 
When I'm driving towards one, my heart begins to pound  
                                           D                        A 
Last night at the bridge to Johnsburg, I swerved down a dead end street  
                                 D                             A 
I sat there shaking in an empty lot full of broken glass and weeds 
      E                       D             A 
Then past me in the darkness ran four wild dogs  
  E                            D             A 
leaping over abandoned tires, high into the air  

        E           D 
In the air, in the air,  
                            A 
someday I will live in the air  

        A                   D             A

        E           D 
In the air, in the air,  
                            A 
someday I will live in the air  

 A                                    D                              A 
Once I loved a girl named Joan, her skin smelled just like falling snow  
                                     D                  A 
One day she drove us off the road into a dead field of corn  
                                    D                 A 
She laughed and hit the gas as we bounced across the rows,  
                                   D                 A 
but I held onto the dashboard with my eyes tightly closed  
       E                            D                A 
Those wild dogs brought back that smell of falling snow  
         E                             D                     A 
and the girl who lives in Johnsburg across a bridge I cannot go 

        E           D 
In the air, in the air,  
                            A 
someday I will live in the air  
        E           D 
In the air, in the air,  
                            E 
someday I will live in the air
