Capo On 7th Fret
[Intro]
Am Em D
[Verse 1]
Am Em
I take my notebook and tear the pages out
D
To write down my thoughts in a message
Am Em C
Where I encrypt every line
Am Em
As the people pass on the street below
D
I smooth out and fold all the edges
B C
Then hold them up against the sky
[Chorus]
G E7 Am
And I let em go
C Cm G
Hope you'll find each word I wrote
B C Cm
On these paper planes scattered in the air
G D G
Oh, I send them off 'cause I know you're out there
Am Em D
[Verse 2]
Am Em
And I picture you discovering
D
Each note all the others step over
Am Em C
'Cause you're the kind who finds the clues
Am Em
And you'll know every one was meant for you
D
'Cause you've got the secret decoder
B C
Oh, they'll lead you to me soon
[Chorus]
G E7 Am
So I let em go
C Cm G
Hope you'll find each word I wrote
B C Cm
On these paper planes scattered in the air
G D G
Oh, I send them off 'cause I know you're out there
[Bridge]
G B
Oh, I know you'll see
C
The heart beneath
Cm
Each line you read
[Chorus]
G E7
So I let em go
C Cm G
Hope you'll find each word I wrote
B C Cm
On these paper planes scattered in the air
G D G
Oh, I send them off 'cause I know you're out there
