[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
G C
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
G C
I'm standing here outside your door
G C D
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
G C
But the dawn is breaking, it's early morn,
G C
The taxi's waiting, he's blowing his horn
G C D
Already I'm so lonesome I could die
[Chorus]
G C
So kiss me and smile for me
G C
Tell me that you'll wait for me
G C D
Hold me like you'll never let me go
G C
I'm leaving on a jet plane
G C
Don't know when I'll be back again
G C D
Oh babe, I hate to go
[Verse 2]
G C
There's so many times I've let you down
G C
So many times I've played around
G C D
I tell you now they don't mean a thing
G C
Every place I go I'll think of you
G C
Every song I sing I'll sing for you
G C D
When I come back I'll bring your wedding ring
[Chorus]
G C
So kiss me and smile for me
G C
Tell me that you'll wait for me
G C D
Hold me like you'll never let me go
G C
I'm leaving on a jet plane
G C
Don't know when I'll be back again
G C D
Oh babe, I hate to go
[Verse 3]
G C
Now the time has come to leave you
G C
One more time let me kiss you
G C D
Then close your eyes I'll be on my way
G C
Dream about the days to come
G C
When I won't have to leave alone
G C D
About the times I won't have to say
[Chorus]
G C
So kiss me and smile for me
G C
Tell me that you'll wait for me
G C D
Hold me like you'll never let me go
G C
I'm leaving on a jet plane
G C
Don't know when I'll be back again
G C D
Oh babe, I hate to go
G C
I'm leaving on a jet plane
G C
Don't know when I'll be back again
G C D
Oh babe, I hate to go
