He blesses the boys as they stand in line The smell of gun grease and the bayonets they shine He's there to help them all that he can To make them feel wanted he's a good holy man Chorus: A# D# A# Sky pilot A# D# A# Sky pilot Cm A# How high can you fly Cm A# You'll never (never) (never) reach the sky Cm D# He smiles at the young soldiers, tells them it's all right Cm D# He knows of their fear in the forthcoming flight Cm D# Soon there'll be blood and many will die Cm F Mothers and fathers back home they will cry He mumbles a prayer and it ends with a smile The order is given, they move down the line But he's still behind and he'll meditate But it won't stop the bleeding or ease the hate As the young men move out into the battle zone He feels good, with God you're never alone He feels so tired and he lays on his bed Hopes the men will find courage in the words that he said Chorus You're soldiers of God you must understand The fate of your country is in your young hands May God give you strength do your job real well If it all was worth it only time it will tell In the morning they return with tears in their eyes The stench of death drifts up to the skies A young soldier so ill looks at the sky pilot Remembers the words, "Thou shalt not kill" Chorus - x2 Cm D# A# You never, never, never reach the sky You never, never, never reach the sky You never, never, never reach the sky You never, never, never reach the sky | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA# Cm D# F Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
