VERSE:
 C      F     C
Leavin' home, out on the road
 F        C
I've been down before

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

But my love light seems so far away
    Bb       F    C
And I feel like it's all been done

Somebody's tryin' to make me stay
        Bb    F   C
You know I've got to be movin' on


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

VERSE:
 C         F     C
Goodbye to all my friends at home
   F          C
Goodbye to people I've trusted

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

But my heart keeps calling me backwards
   Bb     F    C
As I get on the Seven-O-Seven

Ridin' high I got tears in my eyes
       Bb         F
You know you got to go through hell
      C
Before you get to heaven


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

VERSE:
 C          F    C
Touchin' down in New England town
 F          C
Feel the heat comin' down

I've got to keep on keepin' on
       F         C
You know the big wheel keeps on spinnin' around

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

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


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


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