Intro
F# C# D#m C# B C#
F# C# D#m C#
I'm flying out to San Francisco
B
It's been a long time coming;
C#
everybody stood and saw me running
F# C#/F D#m C#
And when they ask me what I miss though
B
I'll say I miss the big time;
C#
sitting at home with a bottle of red wine
[Verse 1]
D#m B F# C#
Ain't it sad how the world just falls apart
D#m B F# C#
When you think you had it all you were really sitting in the dark
D#m B F# C#
And you got the taste of remedy some thousand miles gone
D#m B C#
Thinking maybe this is where I belong
[Chorus]
F# C# D#m C#
I'm flying out to San Francisco
B
It's been a long time coming;
C#
everybody stood and saw me running
F# C#/F D#m C#
And when they ask me what I miss though
B C#
I'll say I miss the big time
[Verse 2]
D#m B F# C#
And now my family is seeing me as cold
D#m B F# C#
I was hoping I could make anew by visiting the old
D#m B F# C#
Common household in the valley next to schooling for the young
D#m B C#
Seems the renovation's recently begun
[Verse 3]
D#m B F# C#
And now the kids have grown; the family is small
D#m B F# C#
Two have headed for the eastern blocks; another made the call
D#m B F# C#
To try and keep the family alive at least the best he can
D#m B F# C#
While the youngest two just haven't made their plan
[Chorus]
F# C# D#m C#
I'm flying out to San Francisco
B
It's been a long time coming;
F# C#/F D#m C#
And when they ask me what I miss though
B C#
I'll say I miss the big time
