It’s easy to play the song in C-major. Perhaps you have to transpose it or
Use a capo if you want to play with the original recording.
Intro: C F C F
C F
We’re sitting out here on the runway,
C F
Waiting for the plane to leave,
C F
And the Captain says, «There’ll be a short delay,
G
Bear with me please,»
C F
They gave us the usual hassle,
C F
«You can’t take those guitars on board,»
A e F
But the boys in the band just smiled,
G
Heard it all before,
A F
And as they’re starting to serve Champagne
E F
To the folks at the front of the plane,
C Bb F G
I can hear the engines roaring, we’re on our way,
Chorus:
A G F
And we are flying home,
A G F
I feel the freedom in my soul,
A G F C G
Flying home at last;
A G F
Flying home,
A G F
I’ve got the freedom in my soul,
E
And it’s four in the morning,
E
My world is calling,
G d F C F C F
Speeding through the universe tonight…
C F
The movie reminds of my lady,
C F
As she waits, «where are those guys?»
C G F G
Yes it’s nice to see old Butch and Sundance in the sky,
A F
And now the sun is beginning to rise,
E F
It’s like looking down on Paradise,
A Bb F G
There’s a ball of fire that’s burning, giving life,
Chorus:
A G F
And we are flying home,
A G F
I feel the freedom in my soul,
A G F C G
Flying home at last;
A G F
Flying home,
A G F
I’ve got the freedom in my soul,
E
And it’s four in the morning,
E
My world is calling,
G d F C F C
Speeding through the universe tonight…
