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