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