[E] [D] [A]
I was down in Elliot town when all men had just said jump.
I threw my clothes on my saxophone in a two-by-four big trunk.
I pushed it to the airport and I ran to the ticket line.
Man said, son, you would have saved the run.
Those airplanes just went flying if I [D] had you here.
I [Em] just might have stayed [B] and that LA Flyway is [A] going to be my home.
Mm-hmm.
[E] [A] I ran through the terminal building and down to Fly-By-Night airline.
The man said I could ride the wing and I said that was fine.
He said I'll perform the reservation and put the plane on hold.
He come back and said sorry but that wing's phased up and sold.
If I [D] can't leave here, I just might [E] stay [Bm] and that LA Flyway is going to be [A] my home.
Mm-hmm, baby.
[G]
[A] I walked into the washroom and I built myself a fire.
Threw on lots of paper and the flames kept getting higher.
The janitor come running in so scared his face was white.
So I explained my situation.
He said that's all right if I [D] can't leave here.
I just [E] might stay [B] and that LA Flyway is going to be my home.
[G]
[A] Next day I thought that I would leave so I packed my things again.
I waited 14 hours for a taxi to come in.
Spotted one that wasn't full and I threw myself in fast.
Driver said I'm sorry but this taxi's out of gas.
If [D] I can't leave here, I just [E] might stay and [B] that LA Flyway is going to [Am] be my home.
