Here I am sitting at the airport 

 

a 

 

Waiting on a plane taking me to New York 

 

F 

 

I’ve been chocking on my caffee when a girl goes past, well 

 

G 

 

Only funny thing seem to make me laugh 

 
 
 

C 

 

When I came I didn’t know that I’d be 

 

a 

 

Still here a week next friday 

 

F 

 

My plane was late cause it’s raining outside 

 

G 

 

Someone stole the engines and we’re gonna have to glide 

 
 
 

 

F       G                  C     C

But I can’t sit here forever 

 

 

F             G 

 

 

Because I wanna go home 

 

 

  

C                     a 

 

 

I never have it felt so bad 

 

 

F            G               C   C

Or maybe I should take a cab 

 

 

F             G               C 

 

 

Bacause I think I’m going mad 

 
 

 

C 

 

Went to the bar to buy myself a beer 

 

a 

I’ve met up with a guy who arrived last year 

 

F 

Bought myself a whisky and lit a cigarette 

 

G 

He said “the more you seem to drink well easier you will get!” 

 
 
 

C 

 

I guess I’m gonna tell ya that if you gonna fly 

 

a 

Get a set a wings and kiss your ass goodbye 

F 

And when you pack a case better pack yourself a bed 

G 

Is if you had a wish you’ve been wishing you were dead
