    1. Leaving home out on the road
       /D5               /A5
       I've been down before
       /A5
       Riding along on this big old jet plane
                 /D5                /A5
       I've been thinking about my home
              /A5
       But my love light seems so far away
              /G5              /D5       /A5
       And it seems like it's all been done
       /A5
       Somebody's trying to make me stay
                  /G5        /D5     /A5
       You know I got to be moving on
       /G5      /D5     /A5
 Ref.: Big old jet airliner
       /G5             /D5       /A5
       Don't carry me too far away
       /G5      /D5     /A5
       Big old jet airliner
                 /G5             /D5     /A5
       'Cos it's here that I've got to stay
    2. Goodbye to my friends at home
       Goodbye to people I trusted
       I got to go out and make my way
       I might get rich, you know, I might get busted
       But my heart keeps calling me backwards
       As I get on the 707
       Riding high I got tears in my eyes
       You know you've got to go thru hell before you get to heaven
 Ref.: Big old jet airliner ...
    3. Touching down in New England town
       Feel the heat coming down
       I got to keep on, keeping on
       You know the big wheel keeps on spinning around
       But I'm going 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 going down in the city
 Ref.: Big old jet airliner ...
 Ref.: Big old jet airliner
       Carry me to my home
       Big old jet airliner
       'Cos it's there that I belong
 Ref.: (Instrumental)
 Ref.: Big old jet airliner
       Don't carry me ...
