[Verse 1]
A
All my bags are packed
D
I'm ready to go
A
I'm standin' here
D
Outside your door
A F#m D
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
A
But the dawn is breakin'
D
It's early morn
A
The taxi's waitin'
D
He's blowin' his horn
A F#m
Already I'm so lonesome
D
I could die
[Pre-Chorus]
A D
So kiss me and smile for me
A D
Tell me that you'll wait for me
A F#m D
Hold me like you'll never let me go
[Chorus]
A D
'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
A D
Don't know when I'll be back again
A F#m D
Oh babe, I hate to go
[Verse 2]
A D
There's so many times I've let you down
A D
So many times I've played around
A F#m D
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing
A D
Every place I go, I'll think of you
A D
Every song I sing, I'll sing for you
A F#m D
When I come back, I'll wear your wedding ring
[Pre-Chorus]
A D
So kiss me and smile for me
A D
Tell me that you'll wait for me
A F#m D
Hold me like you'll never let me go
[Chorus]
A D
'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
A D
Don't know when I'll be back again
A F#m D
Oh babe, I hate to go
A D
Now the time has come to leave you
A
One more time
D
Let me kiss you
A
Then close your eyes
F#m D
I'll be on my way
A D
Dream about the days to come
A D
When I won't have to leave alone
A F#m D
About the times, I won't have to say
[Pre-Chorus]
A D
Oh, kiss me and smile for me
A D
Tell me that you'll wait for me
A F#m D
Hold me like you'll never let me go
[Chorus]
A D
'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
A D
Don't know when I'll be back again
A F#m D A
Oh babe, I hate to go
D A
I hate to go...
