      C7           F
Well, I was happy here at home
       C7           F
I got everything I need.
 C7         F
Happy bein' on my own
      C7                 F
Just living the life I lead.
       A#
Well, suddenly it dawned on me
       F
That this was not my life.
      C7
So I just phoned the airline girl
           A#7
And said, "Get me on flight number 505,
C7                       F
Get me on flight number 505."

Well, I confirmed my reservation.
Then I hopped a cab.
No idea of my destination
And feeling pretty bad.
With my suitcase in my hand.
In my head, my new life.
So then I told the airline girl
"Well, get me on flight number 505,
Get me on flight number 505."

Alright.

Well, I sat right there in my seat.
Well, feeling like a king.
With the whole world right at my feet.
"Of course I'll have a drink!"
Well, suddenly I saw
That we never ever would arrive.
He put the plane down in the sea.
The end of flight number 505.
The end of flight number 505.

Alright.

He put the plane down in the sea.
The end of flight number 505.
The end of flight number 505.
