Composed by: Arlo Guthrie
key: Am Tuning: E A D G B E
Am C6 F C E E7

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

Am          C        D
Coming into Los Angeles,
Am            C6        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

[Verse 2]

Am                   C         F
There's a guy with a ticket to Mexico,
C                         E    E7
no, he couldn't look much stranger
Am             C             F
Walking in the hall with his things and all,
C                            E  E7
smiling said he was the Lone Ranger

[Chorus]

Am          C        D
Coming into Los Angeles,
Am            C6        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

(solo)

[Verse 3]

Am        C              F
Hip woman walking on the moving floor,
C                   E  E7
tripping on the escalator
Am                   C              F
There's a man in the line and she's blowing his mind;
C                          E    E7
thinking that he's already made her

[Chorus]

Am          C        D
Coming into Los Angeles,
Am            C6        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

[Verse 4]

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

[Chorus]

Am          C        D
Coming into Los Angeles,
Am            C6        F
bringing in a couple of keys
Am             C           D           
Don't touch my bags if you please,
       F       C
