VERSE:
  C            F          C
Leavin' home, out on the road
 F                C
I've been down before

Ridin' along in this big ol' jet plane
            F                C
I've been thinkin' about my home

But my love light seems so far away
       Bb             F        C
And I feel like it's all been done

Somebody's tryin' to make me stay
               Bb       F      C
You know I've got to be movin' on


CHORUS:
C      Bb       F      C
Oh, Oh big ol' jet airliner
 Bb             F        C
Don't carry me too far away
        Bb      F      C
Oh, Oh big ol' jet airliner
            Bb             F      C
Cause it's here that I've got to stay

VERSE:
 C                  F         C
Goodbye to all my friends at home
     F                   C
Goodbye to people I've trusted

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

But my heart keeps calling me backwards
      Bb         F       C
As I get on the Seven-O-Seven

Ridin' high I got tears in my eyes
             Bb                 F
You know you got to go through hell
           C
Before you get to heaven


CHORUS:
Bb       F      C
Big ol' jet airliner
 Bb             F        C
Don't carry me too far away

VERSE:
 C                    F       C
Touchin' down in New England town
 F                    C
Feel the heat comin' down

I've got to keep on keepin' on
              F                  C
You know the big wheel keeps on spinnin' around

And I'm goin' with some hesitation
              Bb     F      C
You know that I can surely see

That I don't want to get caught up in any of that
Bb     F          C
Funky shit goin' down in the city


CHORUS:
Bb       F      C
Big ol' jet airliner

Finally, someone got it right !!!!
Great job. I like the alternate choices as well
and the fact that you put it in chords as opposed to the way others show it. I know I am capapble of figuring what strings to hit when I play it and appreciate it in the form you did it in. Makes it so much easier to understand and play.
