Verse:---------------------------------------------------
 C5           F5(1/2 riff) C5 
1.Leavin' home, out on the road
F5                C5
I've been down before

Ridin' along in this big ol' jet plane
          Bb         F       C5           
I've been thinkin' about my home

(By this point you could use full bar chords or keep the 5ths)

C5
But my love light seems so far away
       Bb           F         C5          
And I feel like it's all been done
C5         
Somebody's tryin' to make me stay
               Bb       F     C
You know I've got to be movin' on

Chorus:----------------------------------------------------
....      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      (Intro riff)
Cause it's here that I've got to stay

Verse:-----------------------------------------------------
 C5                F5(1/2 riff) C5 
2.Goodbye to all my friends at home
F5            C5
Goodbye to people I've trusted

I've got to go out and make my way
 Bb         F       C5  
I might get rich you know I might get busted
C5
But my heart keeps calling me backwards
 Bb           F         C5 
As I get on the 707
C5
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
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      (Intro riff)   
Cause it's here that I've got to stay

Verse:----------------------------------------------------
  C5        F5(1/2 riff) C5
3.Touchin' down in New England town
 F5         C 
Feel the heat comin' down
C5
I've got to keep on keepin' on
 Bb           F         C5 
You know the big wheel keeps on spinnin' around
C5
And I'm goin' with some hesitation
        Bb      F         C5 
You know that I can surely see
C5
That I don't want to get caught up in any of that
 Bb       F     C
Funky sh*t goin' down in the city

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

Oh, Oh big ol' jet airliner
            Bb             F      
Cause it's here that I've got to stay

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