Well, I was happy here at home

I got everything I need.

Happy bein' on my own

Just living the life I lead.

Well, suddenly it dawned on me

That this was not my life.

And said, "Get me on flight number 505,
C7 F
Get me on flight number 505."

Then I hopped a cab.

No idea of my destination
C7 F
And feeling pretty bad.
Bb
With my suitcase in my hand.

In my head, my new life.

With the whole world right at my feet.

Well, suddenly I saw
F
That we never ever would arrive.

He put the plane down in the sea.

The end of flight number 505.
