Intro: Am C F C E E7

Am                       C                     F                               C                        E  E7
Coming in from London from over the pole,         flying in a big airliner
Am                    C                   F                                    C                                        E  E7
Chicken flying everywhere around the plane;       could we ever feel much finer?

Am                 C              D
Coming into Los Angeles,
Am                  C              F
bringing in a couple of keys
Am                     C                   D
Don't touch my bags if you please,
             F              C   E E7
Mister customs man

 

There's a guy with a ticket to Mexico,  no, he couldn't look much stranger
Walking in the hall with his things and all,   smiling said he was the Lone Ranger

Chorus

Jam verse + chorus

 

Hip woman walking on the moving floor,         tripping on the escalator
There's a man in the line and she's blowing his mind;   thinking that he's already made her

Chorus

 

Coming in from London from over the pole,    flying in a big airliner
Chicken flying everywhere around the plane;   could we ever feel much finer?
