[Intro]
D#  G#  2x


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


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


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


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


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


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