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


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


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


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


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


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