C
On a weekend pass I wouldn't have had time,
G7
To get home and marry that baby of mine.
C F
So I went to the chaplain and he authorized,
C G7 C
Me to send for my Ebony Eyes.
F C
My Ebony Eyes was coming to me,
F C G7
From out of the skies on flight 12-0-3,
C F
In an hour or two I will whisper, "I do,"
C G7 C
To my beautiful Ebony Eyes.
C G7
The plane was way overdue, so I went inside to the airlines desk,
and I said, "Sir, I wonder why flight number 12-0-3 is so late."
C
He said, "Oh, they probably took off late, or they may have
F
run into some turbulent weather and had to alter their course."
C G7
I went back outside and I waited at the gate and watched
C
the beacon light from the control tower as it whipped through
the dark, ebony skies as if it were searching for
F G7 C
My Ebony Eyes.
F
And then came the announcement over the loudspeaker,
C F
"Would those having relatives or friends on flight number 12-0-3 please re
C G7
port to the chapel across the street at once.
C F
Then I felt a burning break deep inside,
C G7
And I knew that those heavenly, ebony skies,
C F
Had taken my life's most wonderful prize,
C G7 C
My beautiful Ebony Eyes.
F C F C C7
If I ever get to heaven, I'll bet the first angel I'd recognize.
F C G7 C
She'd smile at me, and I know she will be my beautiful Ebony Eyes.
