[Verse 1]
Fm
     So many destinations,
Am                     Em
Faces going to so many places,
                          E
Where the weather is much better,
                        Am
And the food is so much cheaper,
Am Asus2 Am  F            Am
                  Well, I help her with her baggage, 
        F
For the baggage is so heavy,
  Dm                             G7
I hear the plane is ready by the gateway,
           C          D
To take my love away--------!
 
[Pre-chorus]
    G                Bm/F#
And I can't believe...
                   Em
...That she really wants to leave me,
Em/B Em           Am
         And it's getting me so,
Am/E Am       E6
         It's getting me so
 
[Chorus]
 F#m            C#/F    C#dim7/E
(Airport!  Oo - oo---!  Airport!)
             B7/D#
You've got a smiling face,
Bm/D                              A/C#
       You took the one I love so far away,
Bm7             E6
Fly her away,  (Fly her away!)
 F#m            C#/F    C#dim7/E
(Airport!  Oo - oo---!  Airport!)
             B7/D#
You've got a smiling face,
Bm/D                          A/C#
      You took my lady to a - nother place,
Bm7                          E6    Fm
Fly her away, ...fly her a - way-------!
 
[Verse 2]
Fm
    The plane is on the move,
    Am
And traces of the love we had,
    Em                       E
And places all turning in my mind,
                    Am
How I wish I'd been much stronger,
Am Asus2 Am  F          Am
                For the wheels are turning fast,
         F
For as I hear the winds are blowing,
  Dm                            G7
I know that she is leaving on a jet plane,
             C            D
Way down the run(a)way--------!
 
[Pre-chorus]
    G                Bm/F#
And I can't believe...
                   Em
...That she really wants to leave me,
Em/B Em           Am
         And it's getting me so,
Am/E Am       E6
         It's getting me so
 
[Chorus]
