If you want to try to play the melody along with the chords you can use the
D* chord. It's a little different and makes this possible. If not you can
just play a D minor in its place, they both sound fine. Also, you'll want
to leave out the high e string in the G chord if you're going to play the
melody. Again, just the chords sound good. The same pattern repeats through
the whole song.

F D*
In the air I flew, Through the clouds I fall
Am G etc...
Through the country I've walked, In front of temples I've stood
Before the ocean I pray, And I said your name
In the air I flew, Through the clouds I fall
F
And all the things I've tried to say
D*
Were never easy to explain
Am G etc...
They were always meant for you
And all the memories that were made
For years and years I've chased this day
They were always for you
Always for you
In the air I breath, Through the clouds I see
Through the cities I've walked, In the castles I dreamed
On the mountain I climb, When I call your name
In the air I flew, Through the clouds I fell
And all the things I've tried to change
Were never easy to contain
They were always meant for you
(always for you)
And all the memories will never fade
For years and years, In my heart you'll stay
It was always for you
Always for you
Always for you
And all the pieces that remain
They will build a place for us to stay
They were always meant for you
(always for you)
And all the chances that we take
For years and years, We'll have this place
They were always for you
Always for you
