[Am]
[Gm]
[A] [Am]
I'm stuck on the LA [C] freeway, [E] got [Am] rainwater in my boot.
[G] [A] My thumbs unfroze, can't feel my toes.
[Am] I'm feeling a little [E] dizzy too.
[Am] Wheels throwing water all over my [E] ax and little [D] Jones won't [E] lend me a hand.
I've come to cats in a Cadillac and they [Am] say, won't you hop in [D] now.
I [C] went flying [F] high,
[E] [Am] all the way, [E] all [A] the way.
[D]
[Am] [D] [Am] One man's driving a [D] bowler hat, [A] the [Am] other's got a fez on his hip.
They turn around and grin and I grin [G] back, but [D]
not a word [E] was said.
[G] So I took out my [Am] harp and I played them a tune, [E] I could see they were digging it.
Then the one with the bell, well he turns and [C] he says, [Am] we'd like to help you make your trip.
And I went [C]
flying [Bb]
high, [Dm] all the [Am] way, [E] all the way.
They say [D] you can't leave [Am] them out in the rain, [A] they just might freeze and die.
[C] [Am] So why not put them on a [D] plane [Am]
and send [E] them home in the sky.
Well they took me to the LA airport and laid [D] $20 in my hand.
Well I [Am] paid my fare, I'm in the [D] air, [Am] flying back home again.
And [C] I went flying [Bb] high, [D] all [Am]
the way, [A]
[D] [Am] all [E]
the way.
You know I went [Am] flying high all the way.
