Drop The Pilot by Joan Armatrading
Drop The Pilot
Capo:no capo
A nice simple song even if the key is unusual; use a capo or play it in another
key.
[Intro] C#,F#,C#,F#,C#.F#,C#,F#
C# F# C# F#
I'm right on target, my aim is straight
C# F# C# F#
So you're in love I say what of it
F# G# F# G#
Things can change, there's always changes
F# G# F# G#
And I wanna try some rearranging
C# F#
Drop the pilot, try my balloon
C# F#
Drop the monkey, smell my perfume
C# F#
Drop the mahout I'm the easy rider
C# F#
Don't use your army to fight a losing battle
C# F#
Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
F# G#
I'm the one you need, I'm the one you need
You're kissing cousins, there's no smoke no flame
If you lose that pilot I can fly your plane
If you want solid ground come on and try me
Or I can take you so high that you're never gonna wanna come down
Drop the pilot, try my balloon
Drop the monkey, smell my perfume
Drop the mahout I'm the easy rider
Don't use your army to fight a losing battle
Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need
I said
Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need

I'm right on target, my aim is straight
So you're in love, I say what of it?
Things can change, there's always changes
I want to try some rearranging, I say
Drop the pilot, try my balloon
Drop the monkey, smell my perfume
Drop the mahout, I'm the Easy Rider
Don't use your army to fight a losing battle
Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
I'm the one you need, I'm the one you need
You're kissing cousins, there's no smoke, no flame
If you lose that pilot I can fly your plane
If you want solid ground, come on and try me
Oh I can take you so high that you're never gonna want to come down, I say
I say
Drop the pilot, try my balloon
Drop the monkey, smell my perfume
Drop the mahout, I'm the Easy Rider
Don't use your army to fight a losing battle
Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
I'm the one you need, I'm the one you need
I said, animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
I'm the one you need, I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need
Drop the pilot, try my balloon
Drop the monkey, smell my perfume
Drop the mahout, I'm an Easy Rider
Don't use your army to fight a losing battle
Drop the pilot, try my balloon
Drop the monkey, smell my perfume
Drop the mahout, I'm the Easy Rider
Don't use your army to fight a losing battle
Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
I'm the one you need, I'm the one you need
I say drop the pilot (yeah)
Drop the monkey
Drop the mahout
Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
I'm the one you need, I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need
