 G         Bm7        Em       F#m      Bm       Em
Ain't no planes gonna fly outta here tonight, oh no,

Em -> C      C             D          Bm    Em
         so put away the thought 'til tomorrow.

Em -> C                      D
         Look at what you've got,

              Bm  E (classic Gillis/Stroll major VI!)
don't think tomorrow . . .

(C  D)

Ain't no trains gonna ride outta here tonight, oh no,
  so put away the thought 'til tomorrow.
Look at what you've got,
  don't think tomorrow . . .

How can you just turn around:
  We might never get another chance . . .
How can we let it go and never know it?

Baby, don't let it pass:
It's a once in a life time chance.

Ain't no ships gonna sail outta here tonight, oh no,
  so put away the thought 'til tomorrow.
Look at what you've got,
  don't think tomorrow . . .

How can you just turn around:
  We might never get another chance . . .
How can we let it go and never know it?

Baby don't let it slip:
  It's a once in a life time ship,
and its never gonna come again.
  I said it's never gonna come again . . .

How can you just turn around:
  We might never get another chance . . .
How can we let it go and never know it?

Baby don't let it slip:
  It's a once in a life time ship,
and it's never gonna come again.
  I said it's never gonna come again . . .

I said it's never gonna come again!

Ain't no planes gonna fly outta here tonight . . .
