C                  F              C     F                        C                                      
Leavin' home, out on the road I've been down before 
C                                                             F                       C                                                               
Ridin' along in this big ol' jet plane I've been thinkin' about my home 
C                                                           Bb             F           C                                                              
But my love light seems so far away and I feel like it's all been done 
C                                                                      Bb          F        C
Somebody's tryin' to make me stay you know I've got to be movin' on 

 C        Bb     F      C                  
Oh, oh big ol' jet airliner
Bb                  F          C
Don't carry me too far away
C         Bb     F      C 
Oh, oh big ol' jet airliner
C              Bb              F        C 
Cause it's here that I've got to stay

Verse 2 
C                         F             C             F                        C                                                   
Goodbye to all my friends at home goodbye to people I've trusted 
C                                                                  F                                   C                                                             
I've got to go out and make my way I might get rich you know I might get busted 
C                                                                                                                                                        
But my heart keeps calling me backwards 
C     Bb           F          C
as I get on the seven o seven
C                                                                   Bb                      F                    C
Ridin' high I got tears in my eyes you know you got to go through hell before you get to heaven

C                              F          C     F                            C
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 
C                                                                     Bb    F         C                                                            
And I'm goin' with some hesitation You know that I can surely see 
C                                                                   Bb      F            C
That I don't want to get caught up in any of that Funky shit goin' down in the city 

           
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
