Lyrics and Chords
[As recorded by Steve Miller]
Leavin' home, out on the road
I've been down before
Ridin' along on this big ol' jet plane
I've been thinkin' about my home
/ C - F C / F - C - / - - - - / F - C - /
But my love light seems so far away
And I feel like it's all been done
Somebody's try'n' to make stay
You know, I've got to be movin' on, oh
/ C - - - / Bb F C - / - - - - / Bb F C - /
{Refrain}
Big ol' jet airliner
Don't carry me too far away
Oh, big ol' jet airliner
'Cause it's here that I've got to stay
/ Bb F C - / / / /
Good bye to all my friends at home
Good bye to people I've trusted
I've got to go out and make my way
I might get rich, you know, I might get busted
But my heart keeps callin' me backwards
As I get on the seven-oh-seven
Ridin' high, I got tears in my eyes
You know, you got to go through hell before you get to heaven
{Refrain}
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 a-spinnin' around
And I'm goin' with some hesitation
You know that I can surely see
That I don't want to get caught up in any of that
Funky shit goin' down in the city
{Refrain}
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
{Refrain}
Oh, big ol' jet airliner
Carry me to my home
Oh, big ol' jet airliner
'Cause it's there that I belong
