[Intro]
F#  B  2x


[Verse]
       F#                    B
All my bags are packed, I’m ready to go
     F#                B
I’m standing here, outside the door
F#                  B              C#
I hate to wake you up and say goodbye
        F#                     B
But the dawn is breaking, its early morn
    F#                    B
The taxi’s waiting, it’s blowing its horn
F#              B                C#
Already I’m so lonesome I could die


[Chorus]
  F#             B
So kiss me and smile for me
F#                   B
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
F#                B            C#
Hold me like you never let me go
          F#       B
Cause I’m leaving on a jet plane
F#               B                   F#
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
   B              C#
Oh babe I hate to go


[Verse]
      F#                  B
There so many times I’ve let you down
F#                  B
So many times I’ve played around
F#               B                 C#
I tell you now, they don’t mean a thing.
      F#            B
Every place I go I think of you
      F#             B
Every song I sing I sing for you
     F#              B                    C#
When I’ll come back I’ll buy you wedding ring


[Chorus]
   F#            B
So kiss me and smile for me
F#                   B
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
F#                B            C#
Hold me like you never let me go
          F#       B
Cause I’m leaving on a jet plane
F#               B                   F#
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
   B              C#  C#
Oh babe I hate to go


[Verse]
     F#                B
Well now the time has come to leave you
F#                    B
One more time please let me kiss you
F#                        B             C#
Then close your eyes and I’ll be on my way.
F#               B
Dream about the days to come
F#                    B
When I won’t have to leave you alone
F#               B               C#
About the times I won’t have to say


[Chorus]
F#            B
Kiss me and smile for me
F#                   B
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
F#                B            C#
Hold me like you never let me go
          F#       B
Cause I’m leaving on a jet plane
F#               B                   F#
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
   B              C#
Oh babe I hate to go
    F#       B
I’m leaving on a jet plane
F#               B                   F#
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
   B              C#
Oh babe I hate to go
