[Intro x2]
G C
[Verse 1]
G C
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go.
G C
I'm standing here out-side your door
G C D
I hate to wake you up to say good-bye.
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
Al-ready 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
A-bout 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
