Standard (EADGBE)

A--10- (12) A-7- A-8-

Leavin' home, out on the road I've been down before

Ridin' along in this big ol' jet plane I've been thinkin' about my home

But my love light seems so far away and I feel like it's all been done

Somebody's tryin' to make me stay you know I've got to be movin' on

Chorus

 Oh, oh big ol' jet airliner

Don't carry me too far away

Oh, oh big ol' jet airliner

Cause it's here that I've got to stay

Guitar x2

Verse 2

Goodbye to all my friends at home goodbye to people I've trusted

I've got to go out and make my way I might get rich you know I might get busted

But my heart keeps calling me backwards as I get on the seven oh seven (707)

Ridin' high I got tears in my eyes you know you got to go through hell before you get to heaven

Chorus

Guitar x2

Verse 3

Touchin' down in new england town feel the heat comin' down

I've got to keep on keepin' on you know the big wheel keeps on spinnin' around

And I'm goin' with some hesitation You know that I can surely see

That I don't want to get caught up in any of that Funky shit goin' down in the city

Chorus

Big ol' jet airliner

Don't carry me too far away

Oh, oh big ol' jet airliner

Cause it's here that I've got to stay

Oh, oh big ol' jet airliner

Don't carry me too far away

Oh, oh big ol' jet airliner

Cause it's here that I've got to stay

Guitar x2

Yeah, yeah yeah, yeah

Big ol' jet airliner

Don't carry me too far away

Oh, oh big ol' jet airliner

Cause it's here that I've got to stay

Chorus

with fade)

Oh, oh big ol' jet airliner

Carry me to my home

Oh, oh big ol' jet airliner

Cause it's there that I belong
