It's easy to play the song in C-major. Perhaps you have to transpose it or

use a capo if you want to play with the original recording.

 

We're sitting out here on the runway,

Waiting for the plane to leave,

And the Captain says, "There'll be a short delay,

Bear with me please,"

They gave us the usual hassle,

"You can't take those guitars on board,"

a e F

But the boys in the band just smiled,

Heard it all before,

a F

And as they're starting to serve Champagne

e F

To the folks at the front of the plane,

I can hear the engines roaring, we're on our way,

a G F

And we are flying home,

a G F

I feel the freedom in my soul,

a G F C G

Flying home at last;

a G F

Flying home,

a G F

I've got the freedom in my soul,

e

And it's four in the morning,

e

My world is calling,

G d F C F C F

Speeding through the universe tonight...

The movie reminds of my lady,

As she waits, "where are those guys?"

Yes it's nice to see old Butch and Sundance in the sky,

a F

And now the sun is beginning to rise,

e F

It's like looking down on Paradise,

a Bb F G

There's a ball of fire that's burning, giving life,

a G F

And we are flying home,

a G F

I feel the freedom in my soul,

a G F C G

Flying home at last;

a G F

Flying home,

a G F

I've got the freedom in my soul,

e

And it's four in the morning,

e

My world is calling,

G d F C F C

Speeding through the universe tonight...

Fade out on chords of first to stanzas (sax solo)

I'm not quite sure about the chord Bb it might be something different :-)
