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