Hey, I'm a sky-bo and I see the world from an airplane
                                                     C
That's a hobo that can't get around fast enough on a train
            C                                             F
But from an airport or depot the motive for leaving's the same
F     C                G                    C
I'm a sky-bo, that's a new kind of hobo for planes

[Verse]
     C
Hey, I took a flight job in Phoenix
                       G
Flyin' some rich folks around
     G
They paid me to do what I love to
                               C
And I set 'em back safe on the ground
    C
But Phoenix got old and a hurry
                         F
So I sky-roped fancy goodbye
    F                      C
Sit down on the end of the runway
    G                      C
And caught me a jet on the flight

[Chorus]
     F                                        G
Hey, I'm a sky-bo and I see the world from an airplane
                                                     C
That's a hobo that can't get around fast enough on a train
            C                                             F
But from an airport or depot the motive for leaving's the same
F     C                G                    C
I'm a sky-bo, that's a new kind of hobo for planes

[Verse]
           C
I ride the first thing smokin' tomorrow
                        G
Ain't nothing leaving tonight
    G
I'm stuck in this old cajun airport
                               C
Came in on the last Shreveport flight
          C
I'll dose off with the welcomed arrivals
                          F
Wake up in a crowd of goodbyes
         F                  C
But I'll hustle my ticket tomorrow
    G                    C
And lose my blues in the sky

[Chorus]
     F                                        G
Hey, I'm a sky-bo and I see the world from an airplane
                                                     C
That's a hobo that can't get around fast enough on a train
            C                                             F
But from an airport or depot the motive for leaving's the same
F     C                G                    C
I'm a sky-bo, that's a new kind of hobo for planes
