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