I found this one at http://baxters.yolasite.com/blues-from-an-airplane.php

It seems pretty accurate to me.

jefferson airplane takes off, 1966

lyrics: marty balin, paul kantner

music: paul kantner

in a minor

lead guitar: solo in a minor

Em G Am

Em G   Am       C         B5    Am    G Am

Do you know, how sad it is to be a man alone.

Em G   Am C       B5   Am G Am

I feel so, solitary even in my home.

       Dm             C5   B5 A5

Without you, don't know what to do,

      C5    B5   A5    G5 A5

And I don't know where you go.

Em G Am      C                B5   Am    G   Am

I can see, my life is meant to fall apart someday.

Em   G Am    C          B5 Am    G       Am

Just to be, a simple man who sadly lost his way.

       Dm         C5 B5 A5

Got no girl, so I got no world,

      C5 B5 A5   G5      A5   C B5 Am G C B5 Am G

And I got no words left to say.

Am                      C             Em

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, come, make me happy,

       C             D

Like I never, known before.

Am                               C

Say, say, say, say, say, have you ever,

       Em         C          D    G Am

Known a heart, who needed you more.

Em G   Am   C                  B5    Am       G Am

Without you, what's that sound around my heart I feel.

Em G    Am       C       B5          Am    G       Am

Something new, I'm sure the love you've given must be real.

       Dm       C5 B5      A5

I know now, and I'm sure of how,

      C5 B5 A5 G5 A5

I can be the man I feel.

      C5 B5 A5 G5 A5

I can be the man I feel.
