[C]
[C] [F]
I've been down [C]
before.
Riding along on this big old red plane.
I've [F] been thinking about my home.
But my love light seems so far away.
And [Bb] I feel [F] like it's all been [C]
done.
Somebody's trying to make me stay.
You [Bb] know I've got to [F] be [C] moving on.
[Bb] Oh, big [F] old jet and [C]
line out.
[Bb] Don't carry me too far [C]
away.
[Bb] Oh, big old jet and [C]
line out.
Cause [Bb] it's you [F] that I've got to [C]
say.
Goodbye to all my friends at home.
[F] Goodbye to people [C] I've trusted.
I've got to go out and make my way.
I [F] might get rich, you know I might get [C] busted.
But my heart keeps calling me backwards.
[Bb] As I get on the [C] 707.
Riding out in tears in my eyes.
You [Bb] know you've got to go through hell [C] before you get to [Bb] heaven.
Big old jet [C] and line out.
[Bb]
Don't carry me too [C] far away.
[Bb] Oh, big old jet [C] and line out.
[Bb] Cause it's you that I've got to [C] say.
Touching down [F] in New England town.
Feel the heat [C] coming down.
I've got to keep on keeping on.
You [F] know the big wheel [C] keeps us spinning around.
And I'm going with some hesitation.
You [Bb] know that I can [C] surely see.
That I don't want to get caught up [Bb] in that.
Funky kicks [C] going down in the city.
[Bb] Big old jet [C] and line out.
[Bb] Don't carry me too [C] far away.
[Bb] Oh, big old jet [C] and line out.
[Bb] Cause it's you that I've got [C] to say.
[Bb] Oh, big old jet [C] and line out.
[Bb] Don't carry me too [C] far away.
[Bb] Oh, big old jet [C] and line out.
[Bb] Cause it's you that I've got [C] to say.
Jet, jet, jet, [Bb] jet.
Big old jet [C] and line out.
[Bb]
Don't [F] carry me too [C] far away.
[Bb] Oh, big old jet and [C] line out.
Cause [Bb] it's you [F] that I've got to [C] say.
[Bb] Oh, big [F] old jet and line out.
[Bb]
Carry [F] me to my [C] home.
Oh, [Bb]
big [F] old jet and [C] line out.
Cause [Bb] it's that.
