Jet Airliner chords by Paul Pena

B5
Can't see forty-two, just 'bout t'go insane
E5                  B5
I've been down before

Ridin' along in this big jet plane
          E5                               B5
I've been thinkin' about jumpin' out the door

'Cause my home land is so far away
      A5             E5       B5
And I feel like it's all been done

Somebody's tryin' to make me stay
         A5        E5     B5
And I've got to be on the run

(CHORUS)
   A5      E5     B5
Oh big ol' jet airliner
A5             E5       B5
Don't carry me too far away
   A5      E5     B5
Oh big ol' jet airliner
            A5             E5     B5
'Cause it's here that I've got to stay

B5                       E5    B5
I've been sitting by the fireside
E5                             B5
Wonderin' where my strength is goin'

Looking through the midnight,
          E5                             B5
Tryin' to find out which way the wind is blowin'

But my heart keeps pushing me backwards
     A5               E5 B5
As I jump aboard that 747

Riding high, but with a tear in my eye
           A5                E5              B5
You got to go through hell before you get to heaven


(CHORUS)
   A5      E5     B5
Woah, big ol' jet airliner
A5             E5       B5
Don't carry me too far away
   A5      E5     B5
Oh big ol' jet airliner
            A5             E5     B5
'Cause it's here that I've got to stay

(SOLO)

Oh I know I will
I'm gonna leave on my own this time
Oh, yeah, yeah

(CHORUS)
   A5      E5     B5
Big ol' jet airliner
A5             E5       B5
Don't carry me too far away
   A5      E5     B5
Oh big ol' jet airliner
            A5             E5     B5
'Cause it's here that I've got to stay

B5                E5         B5
Goodbye to all my friends at home
E5                     B5
Goodbye to people I've trusted

I've got to go out and make my way
            E5                        B5
I might get rich you know I might get busted

But my heart keeps calling me backwards
     A5         E5 B5
As I get on the 707

Ridin' high I got tears in my eyes
             A5                E5
You know you got to go through hell
           B5
Before you get to heaven

(CHORUS)
   A5      E5     B5
Big ol' jet airliner
A5             E5       B5
Don't carry me too far away
   A5      E5     B5
Oh big ol' jet airliner
            A5             E5     B5
'Cause it's here that I've got to stay

B5              E5     B5
Touchin' down in New England
E5                    B5
Feel the heat comin' down

First thought is "Lord, I said I'd be there"
      E5                            B5
But I couldn't seem to quite get it down

'Cause I'm goin' with some hesitation
     A5            E5      B5
I've got to go and make my way

But there's so many people, Lord, to talk to
      A5          E5       B5
And a whole lotta debts to pay

(CHORUS)
   A5      E5     B5
Oh, Big ol' jet airliner
A5             E5       B5
Don't carry me too far away
   A5      E5     B5
Oh big ol' jet airliner
            A5             E5     B5
'Cause it's here that I've got to stay

B5             E5         B5
Goodbye to old friends at home
E5                              B5
Goodbye to willing friends I've trusted

I've got to go out and make my way
            E5                   B5
I might get rich and I might get busted

But I'm going, Lord, with so many things to clean up
     A5             E5          B5
I've got to make my way clear before me

But I don't want to get mixed up
               A5              E5           B5
In any of that funky shit that goin' down before me

(CHORUS)
   A5      E5     B5
Big ol' jet airliner
A5             E5       B5
Don't carry me too far away
   A5      E5     B5
Oh big ol' jet airliner
            A5             E5     B5
'Cause it's here that I've got to stay

(CHORUS)
   A5      E5     B5
Big ol' jet airliner
A5             E5       B5
Don't carry me too far away
   A5      E5     B5
Oh big ol' jet airliner
            A5             E5     B5
