Final Flight

[Verse 1]
Taped my letter to the door
Say the prayer I've said a thousand times before
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done
Leave the tarmac for one more run
Do what I signed up for
Near misses, close calls, never far from death's door
And for all the hell I've blown through
Brother, I'm tellin' you

[Chorus]
Say "I love you," call your mama
Say you're sorry even if you don't wanna
Take the time to tuck your kids in a little bit tighter tonight
Make your list, check it twice
And always be ready for your final flight

[Verse 2]
I made it home, done some livin'
For all my brothers and sisters who didn't
And I've come to learn our freedom is earned
And you never know when it might be your turn

[Chorus]
So say "I love you," call your mama
Say you're sorry even if you don't wanna
Take the time to tuck your kids in a little bit tighter tonight
Make your list, check it twice
And always be ready for your final flight

[Bridge]
In this field of stones markin' all those gone
I swear I could hear them say

[Chorus]
Steal a kiss, make some time
Buy those tickets on that third base line
Spend the afternoon havin' a cold one with your old man
Every chance you can
Make your list, check it twice
'Cause the world looks a whole lot different from the sky
And always be ready
Oh, always be ready for your final flight
For your final flight
