CWell I'm busted in Stockholm I ain't got no money
GTo pay for an airplane, bus fare or fast train
CBut I gotta get home my woman has been untrue
FShe's got me feelin so beautifully blue
CShe won't take me back no I know 
GAnd the jealousy rubs me like sand
AmBut in my heart I know I must go 
FAfter all I am only a man
CWe hadn't exchanged words in months 
GWhen I met her in Amsterdam
AmShe laughed away my reservations
FSaid thanks for a hell of a one weekend stand
CBetters come and better days go
GI fell back in love with you I thought you should know
AmThat good times move so fast bad seems so slow
FI knew this was fact as your train rolled away from the station
CI waved cause it didn't occur
GAs I stared through the glass at you face as you passed
AmNever again would I see the way you looked at me like you diFd
CAnd that's why I said if and when you decide
GTo stand ignoring the tide 
Amyou'll end up way over your heaFd
AmAnd so I walk the streets alone
late at night FI am unaware of the strangerGs 
and the dangers they pose meAm  
AmAnd as I'm walking by the stores I see my Fimage in the mirrors
And it'Gs clearer that the seasons changing Amme
CSo fly me away take me Gaway fly me awayAm  
CSo fly me away take me Gaway fly me awayAm  
CSo fly me away take me Gaway from this gAmod damn place
CI landed in NYC to late for you and me 
GIt seemed at the airport my time was just too short
CI could tell from the tone in your voice as it rang right through the phone
FOnce again you decided to move on
CYou didn't want me back no you said
GYour stepping out with your landlord instead 
AmI just laughed and scratched my head
FPretty sure you told me he was pitiful
CBetters come and better days go
GI fell back in love with you I thought you should know
AmThat good times move so fast bad seems so slow
FI knew this was fact as your train rolled away from the station
CI waved cause it didn't occur
GAs I stared through the glass at you face as you passed
AmNever again would I see the way you looked at me like you didF  
CAnd that's why I said if wand when you decide
GTo stand ignoring the tide 
Amyou'll end up way over your headF  
AmAnd so I walk the streets alone 
Flate at night I am unaware of the strangerGs 
and the dangers they pose meAm  
AmAnd as I'm walking by the stores I see my Fimage in the mirrors
And it'Gs clearer that the seasons changing meAm  
CSo fly me away tGake me away fly me awayAm  
CSo fly me away tGake me away fly me awayAm  
CSo fly me away tGake me away from this gAmod damn place

Chords in this song · guitar

Well I'm busted in Stockholm I ain't got no money

To pay for an airplane, bus fare or fast train

But I gotta get home my woman has been untrue

She's got me feelin so beautifully blue

She won't take me back no I know

And the jealousy rubs me like sand

But in my heart I know I must go

After all I am only a man

We hadn't exchanged words in months

When I met her in Amsterdam

She laughed away my reservations

Said thanks for a hell of a one weekend stand

Betters come and better days go

I fell back in love with you I thought you should know

That good times move so fast bad seems so slow

I knew this was fact as your train rolled away from the station

I waved cause it didn't occur

As I stared through the glass at you face as you passed

Am F

Never again would I see the way you looked at me like you did

And that's why I said if and when you decide

To stand ignoring the tide

Am F

you'll end up way over your head

And so I walk the streets alone

F G

late at night I am unaware of the strangers

and the dangers they pose me

Am F

And as I'm walking by the stores I see my image in the mirrors

G Am

And it's clearer that the seasons changing me

C G Am

So fly me away take me away fly me away

C G Am

So fly me away take me away fly me away

C G Am

So fly me away take me away from this god damn place

I landed in NYC to late for you and me

It seemed at the airport my time was just too short

I could tell from the tone in your voice as it rang right through the phone

Once again you decided to move on

You didn't want me back no you said

Your stepping out with your landlord instead

I just laughed and scratched my head

Pretty sure you told me he was pitiful

Betters come and better days go

I fell back in love with you I thought you should know

That good times move so fast bad seems so slow

I knew this was fact as your train rolled away from the station

I waved cause it didn't occur

As I stared through the glass at you face as you passed

Am F

Never again would I see the way you looked at me like you did

And that's why I said if wand when you decide

To stand ignoring the tide

Am F

you'll end up way over your head

And so I walk the streets alone

F G

late at night I am unaware of the strangers

and the dangers they pose me

Am F

And as I'm walking by the stores I see my image in the mirrors

G Am

And it's clearer that the seasons changing me

C G Am

So fly me away take me away fly me away

C G Am

So fly me away take me away fly me away

C G Am

So fly me away take me away from this god damn place
